January 2022 Update
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and changing restrictions High Wycombe Gang Show is changing for this year!
Unfortunately, we are unable to hold our usual public show we love to perform right now; however we are excited to announce that we will be holding Gang Show Festival Weekend for current members of Scouting and Guiding (over the age of 8) to participate in.
Head over to our Festival page on the menu above to find out all about what the weekend entails.
Then follow the relevant link on the Festival page to book your place on the weekend.
So, what is a Gang Show?
It is said that somewhere, everyday of every year, a Gang Show is being performed. Sometimes this is in a Scout centre, a village hall or a local theatre, here in High Wycombe we use the superb facilities of the Lancaster Arts Centre at Wycombe Abbey Girls School.
Gang Shows have a rich history, from their London show beginnings in 1932 under the direction of Ralph Reader to the shows of today which combine new and original material, popular music and dance with old Gang Show traditions.
Our show here in High Wycombe is officially recognised by the Scout Association to be of such a high standard that it meets all of the criteria for both on-stage performance and back stage management.
Our Gang consists of 100+ local members of the Scout and Guide Associations who produce, manage and perform the entire show. If you have never been to one of our shows before let us amaze you with the enthusiasm and talent of our local cast.
