Welcome to Melksham Music and Drama

Melksham Music and Drama, originally founded in 1969 as The Melksham Comedy Club, began as a group of passionate performers dedicated to entertaining audiences in and around Melksham. Today, we’re a thriving community theatre group with a strong tradition of creativity and collaboration.

What We Do

We produce three major shows each year:

  • Pantomime – performed in the early part of the year
  • Spring Production – staged in May
  • Autumn Show – performed in September

Our productions range from well-loved classics to original works written by our talented members.


Get Involved

We currently have around 55 active members, and we’re always looking for new talent – both on stage and behind the scenes.

Whether you’re interested in:

  • Acting or singing
  • Lighting, sound, or stage management
  • Set design and scenery building

…we’d love to hear from you! No experience necessary, just enthusiasm and a willingness to get involved.

Tickets are now available for our next show via Ticketsource, Melksham Tourist Information or on the door.
