JOIN LODS

LODS are always on the lookout for new members to join our society. LODS love to nurture talent and will help you reach your performing potential!

We have two audition dates a year, where we will ask you to perform a musical theatre song, learn a short and simple dance routine and then run through some dialogue to allow you to showcase all of your talents.

Next auditions intake for Catch Me If You Can – Oct 29 2026. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for more details.

We rehearse on Monday and Thursday evenings at Eastwood Community Centre in Leigh-on-Sea. Nearer show week, we also rehearse on Sunday afternoons. Our membership is open to anyone over the age of 18. An acting membership of LODS costs £120.00 per year and a £50 show fee; discounts are available for students in full-time education.

If your talent isn’t performing, don’t worry, there are still plenty of ways to get involved… From directing to costumes, crew to publicity, props to lighting, we want to hear from you! Non-acting members pay a membership fee of just £50 for the year, and this also includes a free ticket to every show.

Being part of LODS isn’t just about being on stage; we are a very friendly group and hold lots of social events throughout the year, including during show week, Summer Soiree, Pool Party, Quizzes, Silent Discos, Christmas drinks and more!

If you would like to audition to join us, you can send our membership secretary, Louise, an email by clicking the button below.

Or come along to our next production and say hello to our friendly team in the foyer.

We can’t wait to meet you!
