Welcome to Thespian Arts Theatre C.I.C!

​

Founded in 2017 by Owen, Thespian Arts Theatre was born out of a personal journey encountering the challenges faced by charity performing arts organisations in securing funding. Determined to create a sustainable model, Owen established Thespian Arts as a self-sustained Community Interest Company (CIC) with a mission to make performing arts accessible, affordable, and of the highest quality for all young people.

​

From humble beginnings with just one drama workshop and eight members, Thespian Arts has flourished into a dynamic organisation with nine projects, benefiting over 330 young people each week. We're proud to have created three employment opportunities and nine freelance work opportunities, contributing to the growth and vitality of the performing arts sector.

​

With an average of ten productions staged annually, we've experienced exponential growth, doubling in size each year for the past three years. This remarkable expansion speaks to the effectiveness of our approach and the hunger for accessible performing arts opportunities in our community.

At Thespian Arts, we're not just about putting on shows; we're about empowering young people and creating opportunities. Our ethos revolves around providing a platform for creativity, self-expression, and personal growth. Through our workshops, classes, and productions, we aim to instill confidence, foster talent, and nurture a lifelong love of the arts.

​

We're not content to rest on our laurels. As an innovative and forward-thinking company, we're constantly seeking new ways to expand our reach and impact. That's why we're excited to embark on partnerships with schools to enhance access to performing arts and music education. By working together, we can ensure that every young person has the opportunity to discover and develop their artistic potential.

​

Thespian Arts Theatre CIC is more than just a theater company; we're a community, a movement, and a testament to the transformative power of the arts. Join us on this exhilarating journey as we continue to revolutionise the landscape of performing arts education and engagement.

Thank you for being a part of our story.
