Notes on Bawds
Bawds is one of the leading amateur drama companies in Cambridge. In normal times it performs three main shows a year mostly, but not exclusively, at the ADC Theatre, attracting actors and backstage artists from all round the county. Bawds also works with The Penguin Club, a group of volunteers in and around Cambridge who enjoy making the technical side of theatre come together.
