Founded in 2004, the Original Theatre Company is a touring theatre company, producing both classical and contemporary works alongside new writing.

The Original Theatre Company produces work according to two simple criteria, firstly and most importantly to entertain and secondly to challenge. The Original Theatre Company was founded in 2004. Since then we have gained a reputation for work that is carefully conceived, crystal clear, challenging and always entertaining. We are and have always been, first and foremost a touring company, we produce a summer outdoor tour every year that takes theatre to unusual and exciting 'found spaces.'

"An unforgettable experience of great theatre, great music and a great unique Venue, surely one of the UK's leading touring theatre companies"  East Magazine

At the heart of everything we do is the passionately held belief that quality theatre does not have to be elitist, and that people everywhere expect and deserve the best. We want our work to reflect the diversity of the cities and towns we play in.

We have a deep commitment to creative learning and provide workshops, master-classes, seminars and talks to people of all ages throughout the country.
