the story so far...' He explained the background on the work that was involved in organising the productions they
had arranged over the years looking at it from the perspective of several of those who played in major part of the team.
The degree of their success was reflected with over 60 plus local charities having shared in over £340,000 of the funds
raised by their various productions. Act IV normal stage their productions in the Dundee College Theatre in Gardyne
Road, but due to refurbishment they are using the theatre in the Kingways Campus, but hope to return to the Garyne
Road location in 2011. Currently another production isdue to be held in September.
