Working for a regional theatre in Farnham

News Flash... Graham Norton signs up for FTA!
The Farnham Theatre Association Ltd. is a non-profit making voluntary working group, formed to provide the basis of a charitable trust which will be able to run the theatre in its developing and final form.

The FTA campaigns to re-establish a working theatre as part of Farnham’s cultural heritage, a vision entirely in accord with what residents say they want.  It will recognise the leisure needs of the area’s expanding population and also of visitors and tourists to our historic town.

...to benefit ALL the community
We intend to open a theatre for Farnham which will attract professional and amateur productions, dance, music and entertainment of all types and for all ages. The building will also support educational projects, conferences, exhibitions and many kinds of community cultural events.

A theatre for the community

Other people can and do get their local theatre saved, or a new one built. They achieve their great aims and we can too. It’s not impossible. Remember, we are not alone in our fight to get The Redgrave or its equivalent in place for residents now, and for all our descendants.
