Top Cat Theatre Company was formed in 1995 as a
group of Christians in
Portsmouth, Hampshire, interested in performing high-quality drama. Although based at St Jude's Church in Southsea, it includes members from churches across the city.
Our full-length productions have all been sell-outs. They include:
a children's Christmas pantomime entitled Angel At Large
the thought-provoking drama about a multiple sclerosis
sufferer, Promise,
Exile, a piece devised with the help of asylum seekers that imagines what
might happen if roles were reversed
We also perform sketches in church services, youth clubs and outdoor events across the Portsmouth area. Among those events are:
the millennium eve service on the steps of the Guildhall,
Portsmouth;
the Family Fun Day including Diocesan Eucharist to celebrate
the 75th anniversary of the Diocese of Portsmouth;
a passion play in Commercial Road organised by Churches Together in Central Portsmouth.
HOW TO BOOK US:
Members of Top Cat Theatre Company are available to perform
sketches or plays in your church service, Christian event, youth club or shopping centre. They can also lead workshops to help you perform in the same venues yourself!
Although the
group is non-professional, a donation towards our future work and some help with expenses is appreciated. New members are also welcome to join.

opportunities, contact artistic director Neil Pugmire by clicking here.
