CADOS is many different things to different people. It’s a friendly, inclusive and diverse group of people who are committed to creating something very special. It’s a place where everyone can learn and grow. An outlet for so many creative passions - acting, singing, dancing, directing, sound, lighting, stage make-up or costume design. There is truly something for all of us!

I was a painfully shy 7 year old when I first stepped onto a CADOS stage. But what a thrill it was! I got the am dram bug, and I'm still hanging around 25 years later! CADOS has given me so much confidence, pride and joy. I've done things 7 year old me wouldn't have dreamed of, and grown up surrounded by people who look out for each other and never lose their sense of fun!
