Curtain Call Collaborative (CCC) is a theatre production society founded at St Edmund's College, University of Cambridge, in June 2023. Established with the inaugural Pride & Prejudice (Taylor’s Version) May Week Play in the St Edmund’s College Orchard, CCC was created to offer high-quality theatre that is accessible, collaborative, and community-minded.
Since its founding, CCC has produced an annual free-entry May Week Play in the St Edmund’s Orchard, including An Ideal Husband (2024) and Checchina’s Virtue (2025). In June 2025, CCC also co-funded an independent production of Pride and Prejudice at the ADC Theatre.
The society operates on a philanthropic model rather than a profit-driven one. Central to CCC’s mission is supporting emerging creatives, encouraging student-written work and providing resources, infrastructure, and guidance for writers, directors, and actors. The society also runs acting and performance workshops for students from any college.
Curtain Call Collaborative also acts as a production company. Students working with CCC receive hands-on support from the committee, including rehearsal-space booking in St Edmund's, access to props and set pieces, scheduling assistance, and general production management.
Since its conception in 2023, the Society continues to be run by its founders, Lara Harris and Aurora Sturli.
