In 1945 the Little Theatre opened its doors for the 1st time, now 80yrs later the theatre is still a major part of the community. Home to drama groups, community forums and much more, the theatre is has much to offer and this year we celebrate the 80th anniversary of its place in the community.
Over the coming months there will be lots of planning and organising in preparation for some very special events and shows that will take you back in time to the 1940's and then take you on a journey through the years as the patrons and members of the theatre share with you some of the greatest moments and memories from the past 80 yrs.

OUR ROOF NEEDS REPAIRING
Our Building is old and has been part of the community since 1945. Time takes its toll on us all and our building is no exception. We have a roof that is in desperate need of repair or replacement and we need help in securing funding to make good our roof and protect the theatre for future generations to enjoy.

The star of the cobbles, DI Ray, Responder, The Bay and Silent witness (to name but a few), Ian Puleston Davies visited the theatre over recent days to offer his help and support to the actors of the Stsgeright drama club.
Ian spent the day directing and coaching the group who took to the stage with him to take his direction and guidance. A great day with lots achieved and learned from a master of the profession.
Ian has promised his continuing support and will be coming back over the next few months to do it all again so watch this space for news on how to secure your place on his next workshop.
A big thank you to Ian for his time and support
And it doesn't stop there. Seems that our theatre is popular with those that have walked the cobbles of Coronation St.
Ashleigh, Ah say Ashleigh the butchers boy, played for so long by the talent that is Steve Arnold also graced our stage recently with his amazing cast of actors and their hilarious show that brought the house down with laughter and magic, well sort of magic!
Steve and his team love coming to our theatre and have promised a return with a new show sometime in the spring so please watch this space for more news on what's in store for you from the very talented and much loved team headed by Steve.
