Established in April 2023, Long Marston Little Theatre has a mission to engage the local village of Long Marston and the surrounding areas of Stratford-upon-Avon, bringing arts and culture to the local community. 

With inclusivity and accessibility at it’s core, the company aims to create a safe space for local people to explore the arts, enjoy time together and celebrate the strength of community. 

We will discover confidence and create fun through creative experiences and practices. Focusing on well-being, promoting good mental health and allowing ourselves to flourish.

With mental health and well-being at the forefront, we use the space to take deep dives into activities which realise the importance of community and the strength gained through fostering a collaborative culture.  

On occasion, we provide guest practitioners and  specialist sessions so that our participants are able to experience insights into a wide range of artistic areas.

Workshops for Young People

For our young people, we focus on nurturing confidence levels through drama games and improvisation. 

Activities are cultivated to enrich each young person’s agency and cultural citizenship with a hope that the engagement will influence positively on their lives. 

"There are many rural villages surrounding the town of Stratford-upon-Avon which do not have easy access to arts and culture.

"There are many rural villages surrounding the town of Stratford-upon-Avon which do not have easy access to arts and culture. 

I believe it is vital that everyone has the opportunity to engage in some form of creative practice - it is proven to improve mental health and well-being, establish strength in communities and promote cultural citizenship. 

There is much to gain from engaging together in fun and quite often, new activities. 

I believe Long Marston Little Theatre will provide a space for this. 

Theatre should be inclusive and not elitist, expensive or discriminatory. 

Our company holds that sentiment at its heart. I hope this venture will instil joy, community spirit and confidence in all those who participate and that in turn, it proves infectious!"
