When Wyong Memorial Hall was built in 1965, WDG had a permanent home until 2014, when it was demolished to make way for the new Art House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our progressive band of Thespians have worked hard for years to secure their own new state\u2013of\u2013the\u2013art Theatre on the Tuggerah Straight, which is now used by many amateur groups as an affordable and friendly venue, with the versatility to perform Shakespeare to Slapstick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President of Wyong Drama Group for over 15 years, local doctor Howard Oxley has been entertaining us all in many productions: as Basil Fawlty in \u201cFawlty Towers\u201d, as Ren\u00e9 in \u201cAllo Allo\u201d, as award winning Director at state Theatre Festivals, and much more, with over 50 productions under his belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wyong Drama Group has consistently given the gift of theatre to local residents. Through the Classics, British Comedies, Australian plays and works of local playwrights, Wyong Drama Group has prospered and grown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2415\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/?attachment_id=2415\" class=\"wp-image-2415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013-263x175.jpg 263w, https:\/\/onthecoastpublications.com.au\/onthecoastover55\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/01\/Memory-of-Water-2013.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The Memory of Water 2013<br>Starring (from L to R) Sally Bartley Ruth Jordon &amp;
