Have your say!

We only truly exist as a theatre if we have patrons, and if we are not providing what our patrons want, then we simply won’t survive!
So, do you have you any suggestions for entertainment you would like to see in our theatre?
As you know we put on 6 productions each year (7 this year!) plus our Awards Night which has been in various formats over the years.
We are now embarking on using the foyer for smaller performances.
Please feel free to suggest to any of your committee the sort of plays, musicals, solo acts, comedians, jugglers—any or all performers that you would like to see in our lovely Limelight Theatre.
You can send us a message here.
