There's not much to see here at the moment but we hope to add more details about this topic at a later date :-)

The Huddersfield Thespians are an extant amateur dramatic theatre company.

History

They were founded in 1920 by Robert Montgomery, a former headmaster of Hillhouse Central School, and James R. Gregson. During their first season (1920-21) they performed eight plays, including: "Quality Street", "Mrs. Warren's Profession" and the Yorkshire comedy "Fooils and th'er Brass".[1]

The group won the 1926 British Drama League's competition and subsequently competed for David Belasco Cup in New York.
