The Miller Centre Theatre Company

General information

The Miller Centre Theatre was first opened in October 1977.

Nine productions are staged each season, each running for nine performances in the 198-seat theatre which can be adapted for shows in-the-round. There is a fully licensed bar open from 7pm on show nights.

For those wishing to get involved, open play readings and auditions are held several months before the production. Rehearsals normally run for six weeks (three weeks in the Studio and three weeks in the theatre) and are usually held on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 8pm with one or two Sunday afternoons. Auditions are open to non-members although membership is required for participation in a production.

Anyone not wishing to tread the boards will find ample opportunity for involvement in a live theatre environment as all aspects of the productions are undertaken by members whether it be stage management, lighting, sound, wardrobe, set design and construction or scenery painting. Lack of experience is no barrier - our aim is for enjoyment coupled with a sense of achievement and the satisfaction of earning a good reputation with our audience.

A regular newsletter, 'On Stage', keeps members informed and new members are always welcome.
