As well as making great theatre on our stages, the Playhouse is proud to have an acclaimed Participation programme, shedding light on how and why we do what we do. Each year we engage over 12,000 times with project participants.

Playhouse Artistic and Technical staff reach out to all parts of the community from our Tesco Community & Education Room and other spaces both in and out of the Playhouse building. We work especially with audiences that are disadvantaged geographically, financially or imaginatively.  

Besides the many ways that you’ll find on these pages to join in with our work, we are always excited to work with new partners.

No matter how small your idea is, please contact Louise Dancy, Participation Co-ordinator: 01722 320117  or participation2@salisburyplayhouse.com
