THEATRE REDLANDS

Redland Museum, with its rich and varied collections, is full of stories – and stories are what make theatre. Theatre Redlands has found its ideal home in the Museum, mining its mother lode of collected history to craft stage presentations that bring the stories to life.

The company was formed in 2019 by a group of experienced theatre operatives, each proficient in a wide range of theatre skills. The foundation members were driven by a commitment to producing high-quality community theatre that would involve and develop individuals of all ages and skills, giving them a vision of what can be achieved by community theatre with professional standards.

Theatre Redlands, with its consistently expanding membership, is rapidly becoming a mainstay of theatre arts in the region. In two years it has developed a repertoire of selected published works and original presentations sourced, written, developed and staged specifically for the Redland Museum.

Even during COVID-driven lockdowns it has kept its energy going; in the twelve months between September 2020 and September 2021 it marked up ten productions to its credit. Watch this space for coming undertakings!

A gentleman’s valet, a telephone switchboard and a Waler horse – each one has its story. Written and Produced by Jan Nary – Theatre Redlands.
