A century of
first nights.
England's only entirely student-run theatre.
On stage this term
Full seasonThe centenary
100 years. 2,000 shows.
One creaky building we love.
From the 1926 Dramatic Society to today's fourteen-show terms, the theatre has been run by students the whole way through.
Our history No experience needed.
Everyone starts somewhere.
Act, direct, build sets, rig lights, mix sound, run the bar or design the posters. Every show is made by students, and most of them had never done it before they joined.
