The Friends of the West Cliff Theatre was formed in 1987, primarily to raise funds to support and improve the Theatre. They hold regular social and fund-raising events throughout the year, including quizzes, raffles, theatre trips and other social activities. They also hold a regular Coffee Morning on a Saturday in the Stage Door Bar from 10.00 a.m. to 12 noon which is open to all.
Over the past 30 years, they have raised well over £250,000 providing new lighting and sound equipment, carpets, chairs, stage curtains and, most importantly, a new roof to the main auditorium and helped with the Ladies toilet extension.
A number of the Friends also work as volunteer Front of House, Technical or Backstage Staff, or simply carry out such invaluable tasks of keeping the gardens tidy, postering etc.
The annual Membership fee is only £10 per person, joint membership is £15 and Groups can join for £25. Application forms are available within the Theatre.
