Freshers 2025

With over 40 productions each term going on across Cambridge, there is always something to get involved with no matter what your experience. From stand up comedy to full-length musicals, there is a production to match your interests and availability.

Freshers’ Plays

The CUADC Freshers’ Plays are plays supported by the CUADC whose entire creative teams – actors, directors, producers, designers, technicians and many more roles – are made up of students who have never been involved in Cambridge Theatre before.

Often a lot of people involved are first years, but many postgraduates and people from other year groups who are also new to Cambridge theatre are more than welcome to take part!

For more information, and to take part, check the links below!
