The Toowoomba Repertory Theatre Society has been in continuous operation since 1930. We are an amateur theatre group which prides itself on presenting top quality productions. Our cosy 100 seat theatre, located at 94 Margaret Street, has been fully owned by the Society since the mid 1960's.
The society is fully self funded, based on an operational model in which most of the performance nights are made available to community groups (at a nominal cost) as fund raising events; and four nights are directly marketed by the society to the general public and members.
The Society presents four major productions each year, as well as a number of more informal one-night performances that we call Green Rooms.
Each major production typically runs 10 performances over two weeks. Rehearsals are held some weeknights and often during one day on each weekend for about six to eight weeks, with extra rehearsals scheduled according to need. The actual rehearsal schedule is established to suit the availability of cast and crew.
Green Rooms typically consist of a one act play performed in front of members and friends. These nights offer experience for people new to the theatre who would like to try their hand. The shorter season also suits experienced people who do not have the considerable spare time required for one of our major productions.
