Drama and Musical Theatre Society

Welcome to DMTS – UEA’s home of theatre, musicals, and creative fun!

Join group

Please log in to join this organisation.

ueadramasoc@gmail.com

Whether you're an experienced performer, a total beginner, a budding director, a backstage whizz, or someone who just wants to make friends and try something new - DMTS is for you.

As one of the largest and most active societies on campus, DMTS is all about creating opportunities for UEA students to get involved in every aspect of theatre - acting, directing, tech, writing, performing, singing, dancing and more. We aim to make the performing arts accessible, welcoming and exciting for everyone, no matter your experience level.

What Do We Do?

Throughout the year, we run:

Mainstage productions – full-scale plays and musicals (Previous productions include Be More Chill and Our House: The Madness Musical)
‘Spotlights’ Festival – our annual short plays festival, where new writing and new voices take the stage.
Workshops – led by professionals and fellow students, covering everything from acting and dance to stage combat and vocal technique.
Socials – regular meetups and themed events that are perfect for making friends and having fun.
PANTS (Performance and New Theatre Showcase) – our monthly open-mic-style evening where members share scenes, songs, sketches or anything they’ve been working on!
PANTIES (PANTS Intensive) – our monthly musical theatre rehearsal group, where you’ll learn a full number and develop skills in a friendly, low-pressure space.

Why Join?

Your £9 membership supports all of these opportunities and gives you access to:

Audition for acting roles & interview for tech positions in productions
Subsidised workshops
Members-only socials and events
Access to our WhatsApp community
The chance to perform at PANTS & PANTIES
Our monthly newsletter with opportunities from creative societies across UEA

You don’t need to be a member to attend everything - we welcome non-members for some activities - but becoming a member unlocks the full experience and helps us keep doing what we do best: creating inclusive, ambitious and fun theatre.

Follow us on Instagram @ueadramamtsoc for the latest updates on auditions, workshops, events and more!

If you’ve got questions or ideas, our committee would love to hear from you. You don’t need to wait to get involved - just jump in, say hello and start creating.

Let’s make some theatre!
