There was a time when the only show produced by the RMDS was the annual musical.
Then a request came from the eager members for a show of some sort to be produced in the summer
months. Producers are found from the membership and they
decide on the new three-cornered theme. Then, after a great deal of hard bargaining and trading,
three small teams of performers are created from the total number of members wishing to take part.
Usually there are 15 to 20 in each section.
Due to the lack of a suitable location for another large scale show, the idea was
put forward of using the local Greyfriars
Community Centre and dividing the show into smaller more manageable chunks.
The show was
very well received and has thrived ever since, growing and evolving all the time.
It now features three 35 minute shows and runs for five nights.
Rehearsals take place from the end of April in
various halls in and around Ringwood. When the week of the show arrives, the Monday dress
rehearsal audience is always the other two sets of performers
