Corporate Support & Sponsorship

Corporate sponsorship and advertising with The Theatre is a great way to raise your profile, impress your clients and staff - and support a much loved local asset. 

What we do

The Theatre has been a producing and receiving theatre since 1975, and welcomes over 55,000 customer visits a year (not bad in a town of around 6,000 people). In an average year we host over 300 performances, including theatre, comedy and music; film and National Theatre Live screenings, and a busy gallery programme.

We also produce our renowned in-house panto, which runs for around 100 performances every year and periodically, in house, ‘HomeGrown’ productions.

Our on stage programme is underpinned by a raft of participatory activities, outreach and community initiatives designed to connect those most marginalised in our community with the benefits The Theatre can offer, encouraging everyone to write, talk, sing & create.  These programmes connect over 2,600 individuals, young and old, with the Theatre every year.
