The Imperial College Dramatic Society (ICDS or DramSoc) is one of two major theatrical arts societies at Imperial College London, with the other being the Musical Theatre Society. Founded in 1912,[1] it has existed for over a hundred years and predates Imperial College Union itself.

The Society puts on three major plays each year, in addition to several smaller fringe productions. It is additionally one the London-based dramatic societies to participate in the London Student Drama Festival,[2] and regularly attends the Edinburgh Fringe. Unusually amongst University drama societies, ICDS also maintains significant amounts of technical equipment and its own stage crew, and is primarily responsible for the day-to-day maintenance of the Union's theatrical space, the Union Concert Hall.
