“It’s fast, it’s slick – it has more than a thousand costumes adorning over 90 talented performers – it provides the perfect precursor to the big day itself.”

Our Audience
June from Claydon
Regular audience member
“Once you watch the Co-op Juniors, you never stop! I have to remind myself constantly that they are an amateur organisation because the standard of everything is so high”
Paul from Ipswich
Theatre enthusiast
“What’s not to love about this company. The energy and enthusiasm of everyone is what makes them so special, as well as the amazing costumes and set design.”
Helen from Woodbridge
Group booker
“I organise a group booking every year to see the Coop Juniors and we’re never disappointed. What we love about going to Snape is that we can shop and have a meal as well…such a treat!”
