• The internationally recognised body for the adjudication of all forms of theatre
• Founded in 1947 – the longest established organisation of its kind
• Members must have extensive experience of amateur and professional theatre

The Guild of Drama Adjudicators was founded to improve the standards of adjudication of amateur drama by establishing recognised principles of practice to which its members could be relied up to adhere. Its members are bound by a strict rule of professional etiquette.

The objectives of the Guild are:

• To supply qualified adjudicators to all organisations promoting amateur drama.
• To enable its members to work unfettered towards the objectives of the Guild.
• To provide opportunities for the discussion of the problems of adjudication and tuition either by schools, conferences, or by other means.
