The first show under the new order, Henry Hereafter in November 1998, was a huge success. The play, directed by Tora Bray and staged by Anne Cannings (both new-comers to D.A.D.S.) charted the post-death trials and retributions of Henry VII when faced, in the anti-room of Heaven and Hell, by his, generally speaking, somewhat disgruntled six wives.

It introduced new faces both on-stage and backstage, many of whom are still active in the Society today.
