([[KATS]]) is a theatrical and arts society in Kempton Park, South Africa.
 
== Founding and early history ==
 
Originally founded in 1997 as the [[Belltower Players]], performing at the [[Belltower Cultural Centre]] , and affiliated to the [[Kempton Music and Operetta Society]].  The founding members were  [[Ken Leeder]], [[Gys de Beer]], and [[Heather Mann]], with [[Agatha Ikking]] and [[Maureen Croston]]  joining subsequently. 
 
The group began with performances of several one-act plays between 1997 and 1999, before turning to musical presentations, in the form of the soiree and the Travel Extravaganza.
 
In 2003 [[ KATS]] moved from the [[Belltower Cultural Centre]], to establish a new home at a venue at 25 Kempton Rd,  donated by the Ekurhuleni Metro. They were soon after joined by [[Moddram]], who serve as the technical arm of the society, responsible for sound and lighting for all shows as well as maintenance of the venue.
