Salisbury Playhouse

"One of Britain's most valuable repertory theatres. The choice of plays is exciting and the level of performance is high” Financial Times

Salisbury Playhouse was built in 1976 and is the only producing theatre in Wiltshire, serving a large and growing population throughout Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset.

Salisbury Playhouse is one of Britain's leading building-based theatres with an enviable reputation for producing work of the highest quality.

Our creativity in engaging with local communities is recognised throughout the country. We have pioneered projects that take theatre into schools, homes and communities to touch people who would never otherwise have experienced it. We believe strongly in using the power of theatre to help transform communities.

Under Artistic Director Philip Wilson, the Playhouse continues to go from strength to strength, receiving regular critical and audience acclaim for its choice of shows and the quality of the work it produces. Our year-round programme regularly includes regional, UK or world premieres of important and relevant pieces of work for adults and younger audiences and has earned us the reputation as the South West’s leading producing theatre.
