The Brewhouse Theatre & Arts Centre
The Brewhouse Theatre & Arts Centre, Theatre and arts centre in Taunton, England
The Brewhouse Theatre and Arts Centre is a performing arts facility in Taunton with two performance spaces of different sizes. The main auditorium holds approximately 350 people, while a smaller studio space accommodates around 60 visitors for more intimate shows.
The building dates back to the Georgian era and originally functioned as a brewery before being converted into a theatre in 1977. This transformation gave the town its own professional performance venue.
The venue hosts performances by professional companies and independent creators, shaping local cultural life. It serves as a gathering place where people from the area connect through shared experiences of theatre, film, and music.
The venue is situated in central Taunton and remains accessible throughout the year with regular programming. Check ahead for current events, workshops, and screenings to plan your visit accordingly.
A renowned British actor appeared in a classic comedy play during the theatre's opening season. This performance marked an early chapter in a career that would become significant in British television and stage.
