ABOUT WADAOS
We are the Whitehaven & District Amateur Operatic Society (WADAOS) and our mission is to entertain the people of the area with shows and plays.
WADAOS was established in 1904, first performing in 1905.
​
Our talented members range from age 8 to 80! We are always looking for new members to take on roles both on stage, back stage, front of house and in our production team.
​
Members are required to pay an annual membership fee of £25 for adults and £15 for children under 16 and pensioners. These 'subs' can be paid weekly (£2 a week at rehearsals usually does it) or in block payments. Please speak to the treasurer if you have any questions about your subs.
