The Godalming Theatre Group (GTG) was the brainchild of the late Desmond Holt, from Godalming<\/a>, who decided to put on a youth pantomime in the Wilfred Noyce Hall in 1964.<\/p>\n Founder member David Dray said there were more people in the audience than on stage, and he is both astounded and proud that GTG has grown into a group that puts on \u00a325,000 productions in the near professional Ben Travers Theatre in the grounds of Charterhouse School, although it still rehearses in \u2018the Wilfie\u2019.<\/p>\n It produces three main productions a year \u2013 a musical, a play and a traditional Christmas panto. This variety appeals to members who can choose the genre they enjoy, or try a new challenge.<\/p>\n
