This week, The Playhouse plays hosts to the Gloucestershire Round of the All England One Act Play Festival. Each night consists of two or three plays followed by an official adjudication, with the winners going on to the next round of the competition.
Thursday 5 March brings Oldland Youth and Oldland Players with productions of Deliver Us Not by Lee Howard and Greg Gamble, Effie's Burning by Valerie Windsor and Sins of the Father by Leo Smith.
Friday 6 March sees performances of Kathy Mead's And Who Will Pay the Rent - presented by Athlestan Players - and Bridget Derrett's All Around My Pole (Board-Walkers One Act Players).
Saturday 7 March showcases Tewkesbury Arts & Drama Society in Once This Was A Poet by Brenda Read-Brown and Sodbury Players in Samaritans, Can I Help You by Brendan Williams.
The two most local companies, Board-Walkers and Tewkesbury ADS are both presenting plays written by their own members. Tewkesbury's has already met with great success in other festivals while tickets are already selling fast for the Friday when Board-Walkers' comedy All Around My Pole demonstrates the pole dancing abilities of some of the Playhouse's illustrious female performers 'of a certain age'.
Each evening will present at least 90 minutes worth of theatre for just £7 (£5 concessions).
