By means of an introduction, the following information has been taken from the AETF website... The All England Theatre Festival (AETF) organises the only country-wide eliminating contest for one-act plays in performance. It exists to provide an opportunity for amateurs to compete throughout the country, and contact is maintained with other leading bodies involved in amateur drama across the UK. The Festival is co-ordinated by the English Committee, which comprises three members from each of the four area committees. The AETF organises an eliminating series of festivals which leads ultimately to the English Finals. The winner of the English Final goes on to compete against the winners of similar festivals in Wales, Scotland and Ireland. England is divided into four areas for the purposes of this Festival, viz: Northern, Central, Eastern and Western. Each area is also divided into a number of divisions according to the size and/or history of the individual areas. The Harold Jolliffe One Act Play Festival currently [as of 2008] falls into the Central Division of the Western Area.
