Membership opens up all the doors and opportunities that members of our vibrant theatre enjoy, such as auditions for shows, backstage support, theatrical workshops, play reading and writing groups, front of house support and social events.

As a community theatre that is produced, managed and run entirely by volunteers, there’s never a shortage of ways to get involved here.

Membership is open to everyone, so whether you’re a seasoned amateur actor looking to tread our boards, you want to meet new theatre friends, or just want to get involved in the local arts scene, there’s something for everyone.

Members just pay an annual fee, then once you’ve joined you can get as involved with as much or as little as you’d like to at WT.

Announcing the 2026/27 season at Wokingham Theatre

Our Artistic Director Thomas Atkinson-Joy has revealed what plays are in store for the 2026/27 Season at Wokingham Theatre, which runs from September 2026 to July 2027. Announcing my first season as Artistic Director of Wokingham Theatre is a hugely exciting and humbling moment for me, and I am beyond excited to finally be able to share it. We read over 80 plays in the process of putting this programme together, and what has emerged is something I believe is genuinely bold, genuinely ambitious, and genuinely thrilling.

Audition notice: One Man, Two Guvnors

It may only be the middle of June, but we’re so excited to share audition details for our Christmas show, the incomparable One Man, Two Guvnors.

The play depicts the conflict between a former political prisoner, her husband, and a doctor who may, or may not, have committed horrific crimes under the former regime. It questions how societies move forward after periods
