About The Unknown Theatre Company

The Unknown Theatre Company is about making good theatre, giving young people a chance to perform in quality productions. We welcome everyone aged 13-25, whether or not you have theatrical experience.  We also run special workshops and productions for younger members, aged 8-13.

The Company stages musical theatre shows, both new and well-known, alongside other related activities: we take part in exchanges, give concerts, enter choir and other competitions, go on tour, and anything else we think might be of interest to the Company members. We have also recently added some serious, non-musical theatre to our achievements, and we are about to embark on the Company's first full-length play.

If you have any questions, or would just like to get in touch, please do contact us. We'd love to hear from you.
