About DTGC

Welcome to the website of the Dorset Theatre-Goers’ Club – an organisation for lovers of theatre in the Weymouth, Dorchester, Blandford, Wimborne and Ferndown areas of Dorset.

We were established in 1970 by Graham Jenkins, now our Honorary President, and the Club has been run continuously, largely by volunteers, since then.

About once a month we travel by specially-chartered coaches from local pick-up points to see a play or musical (or perhaps the occasional ballet or opera).  We normally go to matinees on a Saturday, and occasionally on a Wednesday or a Thursday, at leading theatres throughout the south of England. In the past these have included venues in Bath, Brighton, Bristol, Chichester, Exeter, Guildford, London, Newbury, Plymouth, Richmond, Salisbury, Sonning, Southampton, Windsor and Woking.

If you enjoy travelling in comfort to see live theatre, combined with a great day out, then Dorset Theatre-Goers’ Club may be for you.
