Stage Squad

About The Stage Squad:

Stage Squad was founded on 1 February 2005 as a social performance group for staff, family, and friends of Greater Manchester Police employees.

For several years, we performed exclusively for GMP staff at the Hough End Centre (Sports & Social Club) in Chorlton. Under the leadership of our Squadron Leader, Sean Kennedy, the group later expanded beyond GMP and began performing publicly across Greater Manchester.

Where We Performed

Over the years, Stage Squad has appeared at a wide range of events and charity performances across the region. Our regular theatrical homes included:

Altrincham Little Theatre – annual pantomimes
Hough End Centre – cabaret shows

We now have our own dedicated venue, The Squad House, where we have already staged over twenty productions.

Our Members

Stage Squad is made up of adult performers aged 21–60, many of whom are highly experienced. While talent is essential, we value a sense of humour even more — drama queens need not apply.

Our Season & Performances

Each year, our season includes:

1 adult pantomime
1 adult cabaret or musical comedy production

We also take part in several high-profile events annually, including:

Manchester Day Parade
Stockport Foodie Fridays
