FOLLOWING their sell out production of We Will Rock You last year, Splinters Theatre Group are back again this autumn with yet another massive challenge.

As well as selecting a brand new committee for the group, October will show yet again the growing talent of Sheffield's youth in their production of Boogie Nights, a UK amateur premier.

Boogie Nights is a show full of classic 70's floor-fillers. It's a vibrant production expressing the heat, madness, heartache and joy of being young and in love. The show runs from October 7 to 11 at the University Drama Studio Sheffield.

Anybody interested in joining the society should email splinterstheatre_group@o2.co.uk, or call 01142763826 (evenings) or 07910251584 (day time).
