Welcome

Waltham Forest

Gang Show

Welcome to Waltham Forest Gang Show Website.

We’re back and with a new name and a new venue!
Not long after our 2006 show, Walthamstow & Leyton Scout Districts merged to become Waltham Forest South. After 36 productions at Waltham Forest Theatre (Lloyd Park) the theatre closed down in 2008 and we have now moved to our new home at Chingford Assembly Hall, Chingford E4 where our fellow Scouters in this district now join the gang.

As this means there is now a wider catchment area for our Scout cast, we decided to open further the invitation to Guide groups within a wider area in the borough resulting in the new title - ‘Waltham Forest Gang Show’

We produce a show bi-annually which takes place at the end of April/May. Our Gang works from the beginning of January and rehearse every Sunday afternoon for four months leading up to the show. In addition to the main Scout and Guide cast, we include a special item in the first act for our beaver/cub scouts and brownie guides which gives them about 15 minutes to themselves. Our main cast size averages 60 to 80 members with scout and guide age ranging upwards to adults all being current members of the Scout and Guide association.

The production team and section heads of department includes Directors, Choreographer, Show Co-ordinators, Wardrobe, Stage Director, Stage Manager, Lighting, Sound, Music Director together with the Business side, Advertising, Front of House, Refreshments etc.

The show is managed by Waltham Forest South District Scouts
