As we approach the final play of our 2022/23 Season, Lovesong; Romiley Little Theatre are proud to announce the seven productions which will make up our 2023/24 Season.
This is the first time we have launched a whole year of plays in one go, as our first full season at The Wharf was split between an Autumn/Winter and Spring/Summer season. We hope this balanced selection of plays has something for everyone with new writing, classic comedy and heightened drama all included.
