Chingford Amateur Dramatic and Operatic Society

The home of community theatre in Chingford

Hello! We're Chingford's friendliest (and longest-running) amateur dramatics society.

Looking for a fun, welcoming bunch of people who get a buzz from putting on great shows? You're in the right place!

​

Based in Chingford, CADOS has been entertaining the people of Waltham Forest, Essex and beyond for more than 75 years.

​

We're a diverse group, united by an interest in amateur dramatics. We perform 2-3 musicals or plays a year. Whatever the show, the camaraderie and friendship always shine through!

​

Could you be part of the CADOS family?

What I took away from 'The Diary of Anne Frank' tonight was indescribable. I don't think I have seen such a tight performance with such a crackle in any theatre I have ever been to. It was mind-blowingly good. The standard of acting is something to be extremely proud of.

You should all be proud of 'Made in Dagenham'. The biggest compliment I can pay is that the audience would never have known that Covid got in the way. We saw a fun, meaningful musical with a great local story performed with warmth, camaraderie and passion.

Paul Daynes, NODA reviewer

CADOS are an extremely welcoming community. I've found a fantastic group of individuals who I class as friends. We are like a family. If you're thinking of joining, do it! Being part of CADOS has increased my confidence and I've already taken on roles I couldn’t have imagined.
