Previous productions include: , \u2018A Chorus Line\u2019 (2018), \u2018Chicago\u2019 (2019), 'Company' (2022), 'Chess' (2022) 'Sunday in the Park with George' (2023) and 'Spring Awakening' (2023).

It is an ambitious coach-bound operation; a company of 24 tour with professional lighting and sound equipment, costumes and an experimental set, enabling us to put on a show absolutely anywhere. \r\n\r\nEach year we typically visit a range of venues - ranging from professional theatres, to schools and universities, and even to churches and converted bread-ovens - and travel through three or four countries. In the past, we have performed in France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, The Czech Republic, Italy and Hungary, before returning for a homerun in Cambridge the following January. \r\n\r\nA typical day on tour doesn't exist! Every single performance is like an opening night as we usually only perform at any given venue for a day, meaning we constantly have to adapt the show, both technically and artistically, to best suit the space we are performing in. However as a rough idea, we leave the previous venue very early in the morning, arriving at the new venue around lunchtime. The entire company then unloads the coach and starts the \"get-in\", setting up the lighting, sound and set. Whilst the techies finish this, the cast prepare the show for this new stage. Sometimes we then put on a late matinee (and if not, we explore the town), before settling down to dinner followed by the evening show. Once the curtain comes down we rapidly \"get-out\", reload the coach, and by midnight, head off to stay with a host family!\r\n\r\nOver time, ETG has developed a reputation at home and abroad for producing exciting, innovative, experimental and professional interpretations of classic texts, attracting the most ambitious actors, technicians and creative forces from within the university.
