Where did it all start?
Our first professional production was Alan Ayckbourn’s The Norman Conquests, starring Only Fools and Horses‘ David Jason. From the start we have enjoyed support from the local community, who have been involved in everything from fundraising, to volunteering Front of House, to working behind the scenes. Frankly, we couldn’t do it without them.
Our audiences are loyal and return again and again for the quality of our shows, enjoying live music, drama, films and event cinema, as well as dance, comedy, family shows and exhibitions.
Support & Funding
We have had considerable success in attracting grant funding due to the quality of our activity, most recently from the Weston Culture Fund for our development programme called The Distillery which aims to nurture and support regional artists at each stage of their career.
Our New Identity
In 2021 we took some time to reflect on what we were doing and our aims for the future.
We wanted to hear the opinions of everyone in the community who had an interest in Taunton Brewhouse so held a public consultation which all stakeholders were invited to take part in. The process and feedback lead to a reimagining of our core values. We then rebranded with the help of local creative agency Teapot Creative, resulting in a change of visual identity carried across all formats.
