In January 2008 the Act Now! Drama Company performed their first production The Tragedy of Federico Garcia Lorca to a full house at The Broadway Theatre Studio, London. Their second production Mind Games - looking at the works of August Strindberg and Alan Ayckbourn - was also performed at The Broadway in April 2008.

The company premiered their new comedy play That Happy Feeling! written by David Hunt, in September 2008 at same venue. The show ran for a week with great public response. This was followed by The Passion of Henrik Ibsen and in January 2009 Coward's Way, looking at the comedy scenes, monologues and songs of Sir Noel Coward. Their most recent production was Sophocles’ Greek tragedy Electra, which ran at The Courtyard, London in March 2009.

The next production will be Something Wicked This Way Comes, exploring Shakespeare’s villains and villainesses which will run for a week at The Greenwich Playhouse , London in July 2009.

Due to popular interest That Happy Feeling! is also scheduled for reprisal at a central venue in mid/late 2009.
