Theatres Trust
We are the national advisory public body for theatres. We champion the past, present and future of live theatre, by protecting the buildings and what goes on inside.
We do this through providing advice on planning and development, supplying resources and advice to make theatres sustainable and offering financial assistance through grants.
We help people discover more about theatres and campaign for theatres at risk.
