Welcome Back |
We have three exciting shows planned for the autumn: a PTC production of Romeo and Juliet in November and then, not one, but two Christmas shows in December. Group 64 will be performing The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in early December, quickly followed by PTC’s production of Alice in Wonderland. We do hope that you will join us for one of the shows. Thank you to those who attended our Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 19 October. The reports from our General Manager, Group 64 and Putney Theatre Company clearly reflected how much we have achieved over the last 18 months. We re- elected the three Trustees who are required by our constitution to stand down every three years, confirmed the election of one Trustee who was co-opted earlier this year and elected one new Trustee. We still have one vacancy on the Board. You can read the annual report and accounts on the Trustees page. We are still looking to recruit new trustees to serve on the governing board for Putney Arts Theatre. If you are interested or know someone who might be, please see the Trustees page. |

What We DoPutney Arts Theatre is home to two theatre groups, as well as having exhibitions, events and outside performance groups in regularly from the local community. |
PUTNEY THEATRE COMPANY
One of the leading adult amateur theatre companies in the UK. We produce theatre that challenges our audiences, but also entertains them. We provide a friendly atmosphere, a rehearsal process that helps actors develop, get to know new friends and become a part of our local community.
| GROUP 64 Theatre FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
We are a Young People's Theatre Company based in the heart of Putney. We run weekly drama classes for ages 4-19, holiday projects, and opportunities to be involved in performance, directing and technical theatre. We also have an education department and a graduate company called Little Echo.

ABOUT US
We are a community theatre.We make work that is any and sometimes all of the following: bold, adventurous, challenging, classic, new and sometimes more than a little bit silly. Above all, our work always strives to be of the highest standard. We are driven by a community of active members that includes local Putney residents, people from the borough of Wandsworth and from further afield throughout London. Being the base of both Putney Theatre Company and Group 64 Youth Theatre, we are driven by the hard work of our adult members and the playful experimentation of our youth.

Formed in 1964 out of the coming together of a couple of local community drama groups, we began life as Group 64. 1968 saw us find a home in the Old Union Church which we continue to inhabit, gaining the freehold in the late 1990s with the help of a Lottery/Arts Council grant.
Throughout the years our plans for the building, acts of refurbishment and artistic output continued to expand alongside each other. In 1999 we brought Putney Players into our community and they became Putney Theatre Company with Group 64 looking after the dramatic pursuits of our young people.
