The Stone Gang Show is set to light up the stage once again as Scouts and Guides from the local area prepare to deliver a week of variety-packed performances at the Mitchell Arts Centre in Hanley.
A showcase of local youth talent
Running from Tuesday 22nd to Saturday 26th April 2025, the Gang Show is a long-standing tradition in the Scout movement, offering an opportunity for young people to take part in a live theatre production filled with music, sketches and dance.
This year’s production will feature evening performances at 7:15 pm each night, with an additional matinee on Saturday 26th April at 2:00 pm. Tickets are available now and are expected to sell quickly.
A night of entertainment for all ages
The Gang Show brings together performers from across Stone’s Scouting and Guiding community, with participants ranging from age six and up. Audience members can expect a vibrant mix of musical numbers, comedy sketches and lively group routines that highlight the creativity and dedication of the young cast.
The show has become a staple in the local events calendar, offering a family-friendly evening out that appeals to a wide audience. Each year, the cast and crew work for months behind the scenes to deliver a show that is entertaining, heartfelt and packed with community spirit.
What audiences can expect
- A variety of music, dancing and sketches performed by local Scouts and Guides
- A high-energy show suitable for families, friends and supporters of all ages
- A chance to support local youth organisations and celebrate young talent
- An evening filled with laughter, teamwork and positivity
More than just a performance
While the show itself offers a fun and uplifting experience, it also plays a key role in developing the confidence and skills of those involved. Many participants speak of the friendships and life lessons gained through taking part, from learning to perform in front of an audience to working collaboratively in a team setting.
Organisers describe the show as an opportunity for young people to shine while strengthening the bonds between different Scout groups and their wider community.
