The Therry Dramatic Society was founded by George Duke Walton on 8th September, 1943. The first meeting was held in the Diocesan Catholic Education Building (now Fennescey House) at 33 Wakefield Street, Adelaide. The first major production - Quality Street by J.M. Barrie - was mounted the following year, on the 2nd August 1944. This was the forerunner of nearly 300 productions which the Society has produced since that time. The Society has staged one musical and three plays each year since 1978. Over 60 years, productions have been staged in Australia Hall, Willard Hall in Wakefield Street, back to the Australia Hall, renamed the Royalty Theatre, and now at the Arts Theatre in Angas Street.
