If you would like to take part, or know of any children who would love the chance to appear in this great show at a purpose built theatre please contact me at secretary(a)kvods.com

They were chosen to perform at the festival after winning best youth group at the Woking Drama Festival last year with the fantastic play Rags to Riches by KVODS member Richard Roberts.

Richard adapted his childrens book of the same name into a stage play specifically for Young KVODS to be able to enter 2 drama festivals last year. We are so thrilled he agreed and hope that the win is the beginning of a great future for both Young KVODS and Rags to Riches.

Thank you to all those who supported us by coming to see the play at Leatherhead Drama Festival / Woking Drama Festival / the awards night at Woking or the All Winners in Thurrock.

Due to a technical issue the youth box office phone has been disconnected and there is no way we can get it reinstated. We are now in discussions with the provider.

So, the new number to book Annie Jr tickets on is: 07982 046210. This number will be active as of 02/07/2010. Please note this is the adult box office phone so when phoning and leaving a message on the voice mail please state whether you are booking for Annie Jr or Jesus Christ Superstar.

Alternatively you can still book tickets on youthboxoffice@kvods.com or www.ticketsource.co.uk/youngkvods (small booking fee applies when bought online)

Please book your tickets asap, the cast are working really hard on the show. Come and see the future generation of KVODS!!
