Welcome to The Florians Theatre
We are an amateur dramatics company based in the city of Inverness, in Scotland. Founded in 1944 with the purpose of entertaining the troops stationed in town in World War 2, we nowadays produce approximately 5 productions a year in our premises. Please feel free to browse our website where you will find lots of information on our theatre, our productions, our 75th anniversary, and much, much more. We are always delighted for new people to come along and join our company, so if you would like to be involved, please e-mail us at florians.secretary@gmail.com |

Our Next Production
Our next production will be "Blithe Spirit" by Noël Coward from 11th - 14th September. This will be directed by Claire Cameron. Blithe Spirit is a comic play by Noël Coward. The play concerns the socialite and novelist Charles Condomine, who invites the eccentric medium and clairvoyant, Madame Arcati, to his house to conduct a séance, hoping to gather material for his next book. The scheme backfires when he is haunted by the ghost of his annoying and temperamental first wife, Elvira, after the séance. Elvira makes continual attempts to disrupt Charles's marriage to his second wife, Ruth, who cannot see or hear the ghost. |

News and Upcoming Events
We have a Costume and Make-Up workshop coming up on Saturday 24th August with Utopia Costumes - one of the UK's leading suppliers of theatrical costumes for both professional and amateur theatre. Join us with Ewan Campbell as we learn all about how a costume can transform your character. We'll also learn about stage make-up and how to create the perfect look for any character. To book a place, please contact 75th@florians.org.uk. Tickets are £5 for non-members and £3 for current members. All abilities welcome.
As you may be aware this year's panto is Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, but what you may not know is that we have to start planning for next year's panto already! The first thing we need to do is to find someone who is ready to find their inner director and take on the challenge. Do you think you can direct a panto? Can you make up corny song lyrics? Do you know some really bad "Dad" jokes? If yes, then pantomine is definitely for you. If you are interested, please e-mail 75th@florians.org.uk.
We have two entries planned for next year's SCDA One Act Play competition - more information to follow. If would always be good to have more entries, although not necessarily for the completition, but so we can have our own night of one act plays in the theatre. If you are interested in adding another play to the pot then please contact 75th@florians.org.uk.
