Support UsLeave A Legacy
If The Theatre holds special memories for you and your family, and you would like to help secure it for future generations, please consider making a gift in your will.
Anyone can leave a gift to charity in their Will and no gift is too small to make a lasting difference.
Legacy gifts have played an important role in securing The Theatre’s future - helping us build a thriving mixed arts venue for our community and maintain and preserve our historic venue.
John Terry, Artistic Director
Help secure your Theatre for the future
Every legacy supports The Theatre's work on stage, in the community, and behind the scenes, and helps to secure our future.
When you make a gift to The Theatre in your will, you can trust us to invest in the future of this important asset for our town, and to continue to bring creativity and joy to our community by creating opportunities for everyone to access and benefit from the arts.

How to Make a Gift to The Theatre in your Will
For many, making a lasting commitment to The Theatre with a gift in your will may feel more feasible than making a current gift, and may have tax advantages. We always recommend taking professional advice about the best way to leave a gift to The Theatre, and how to do so tax efficiently.
We would be happy to discuss your wishes, or to send you our legacy information pack and codicil.
