Whickham Theatre Club was founded in 1976 when a group of like-minded friends got together to form a drama club. Up until this time no such organisation existed. Their first production was of J.B. Priestley's "When We Are Married".
Productions took place in Whickham School Hall, Sunniside Methodist Church Hall and are now all performed in St Mary's Centre, Church Chare, Whickham. The club has now developed greatly and has over 40 members.
Two productions are presented per year; in the Spring, normally a Play and in the Autumn, a Pantomime or Christmas production.
The Club meet on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm in St Mary's Centre, Church Chare, Whickham.
