Welcome to Theatre Venture's website. 

Based in Stratford, Newham, Theatre Venture engages the communities of East London and beyond in theatre, media and arts projects.

Since 1981 we have delivered projects for local residents both at our homehome at Stratford Circus and in a variety of locations that takes our work to the very heart of our community.  These projects range from regular weekly classes and workshops, to summer schools, festivals, events and performances; providing access and opportunity; encouraging and sustaining new participants and audiences for theatre and the arts.

In creating professional touring theatre for schools for over 25 years, we have established a reputation and expertise as a leading company in this field; recognized by continuing support from, amongst others, the London Borough of Newham, the Arts Council of England and various trusts and foundations
