Founded in the late '60s with a first production of 'Oklahoma' in 1970, SYD Seniors is the original SYD group. In 2011 the group was named Seniors to differentiate between SYD the company and this one group, which was previously just called SYD or the Sawston Youth Centre Drama Group.
SYD Seniors is open to those in school years 9 to 11 or at Sixth Form (or equivalent). Members are allowed to perform with the group until they turn 18.
From September through February we rehearse on Wednesdays and Sundays excluding school holidays. After the main production the group will reconvene in May/June to begin work on the Shelford Feast.
Membership of SYD Seniors costs £140 per year. This covers the cost of rehearsals, insurance, licencing, costumes and scenery. SYD Seniors also perform in the Shelford Feast in July each year, the cost of which is included in the annual subs.
