The Ups and Downs Theatre Group was formed in 1995 to provide a fun creative outlet for young people with Down Syndrome and their families. Our cast come from all backgrounds, ages and abilities where there is a welcoming space for everyone to explore the joy of theatre, encouraging all to participate and promote self-expression and confidence. We are a parent led theatre group and encourage our parents to get involved in many aspects to help in the smooth running of the group. We rely on volunteers, to help with the cast at the weekly rehearsals and all performances they have throughout the year culminating in their big show in March of each year. We have a Musical Director and production team who know the cast well and bring out the best in everyone involved when performing.
