APS is one of the four finalists for the award given to an amateur theatre that's making great use of its building and has carried out a refurbishment project in the past 5 years.

"From replacing leaking roofs and insulating draughty buildings to installing hearing loops, flexible wheelchair seating and captioning facilities, the Great Amateur Theatre finalists showed how amateur theatres can play an outsized role in connecting their communities. They represent the breadth of extraordinary ambition showed by volunteer-led theatres."
