This July, we will host our inaugural Festival of New Theatre - an explosion of creative talent for audiences, writers and theatre-makers, and our local community. Step into our thriving theatre to experience the following...

Watch a world premiere
The Festival will feature three brand new full-length plays, plus a sprinkling of short plays, chosen from hundreds of script submissions. We have curated a programme of the most exciting new works, from a diverse pool of writers across UK & Ireland.  

Celebrate new voices
As well as championing new writers, this festival boasts work from new directors, partially-devised work, plus collaborative projects with the Questors Youth Theatre and improvisation from the Questors House team, The Slack Captains.

Expand your creativity
Take a break from performances to join our panels and workshops where you can find out more about the ideas and processes behind the plays, contribute to the development of new plays and pick up some tips for your own writing.

Share ideas in our multi-award-winning bar
Continue the discussion over a beer* in our very own theatre bar. We are the proud holders of a Cask Marque award for the quality of our real ales, we appear in the 2022 edition of The Good Beer Guide and were CAMRA National Club of the Year 2012.
