Wokingham theatre is an energetic and passionate community theatre founded in 1947. We present 8 major productions a year alongside Youth Theatre productions, short runs of less well known plays, evenings of new writing, and a wide range of theatrical skills training. We have a 146 seat theatre, our productions run for 9-10 nights and are mostly sold out. Back stage is full to overflowing with wardrobes, set building, props storage etc. We have 100 youth theatre members in 5 classes, there is more demand! We need more space to provide more opportunities for the ever growing local community. We aim to expand our capacity for our technical teams as well as adding extra seats, improved disabled access and a new Studio theatre. We are also hope to provide extra rehearsal space for our growing youth theatre. Everyone is a volunteer - actors, set builders, box office staff etc. The theatre is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors elected from the membership by democratic vote each year.
