The group is made up of local actors from the Horsham district, Rudgwick, Loxwood and Guildford and rehearse in The Haven, near Billingshurst. All the Heavenlies have a passion for Shakespeare and creating a thoroughly enjoyable experience for our audiences.

The Heavenlies are very proud and excited to announce that the group has been selected by the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Open Stages project which supports and mentors amateur theatre groups with professionally run workshops and creative input. The Open Stages project runs until April 2016 – the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare – and there will be opportunities for participating groups to showcase their productions in a professional theatre setting.
