Welcome to the web site for Broad Horizons Theatre Company. We are a lively professional small theatre company. Our aim is to produce the best in established and new writing for touring to small and medium sized theatres, rural and school venues. All our shows aim to be suitable for adults, family audiences (with older children) and high schools.
We also offer a variety of drama workshops which can range from Shakespeare in schools to site specific work. All our workshop leaders are experienced actors or directors used to working with both children and adults.
Please check out our web site for details about who we are, our current tour, past or future productions and workshop offerings.

A Visit from Miss Prothero
By Alan Bennett
Mr Dodsworth has recently retired. Sitting at home he feels he can look back on his life and achievements at work with satisfaction, until his former secretary Miss Prothero comes to visit. Will her news of the firm renew his pride or ruin his satisfaction? Starring Judi Daykin as Miss Prothero. Why not join us for this opportunity to see one of Alan Bennett’s bitter sweet one-act comedies.
Monday 26th to Friday 30th October 2009
1.10pm in the rehearsal room.
A Christmas Miscellany
When Christmas is almost upon us, why not join us for a lunchtime celebration of the season. Judi Daykin brings together traditional carols, seasonal folk songs, poems and even a Christmas ghost story to get us into the Christmas spirit. Some of you will have heard Judi sing in the past (perhaps in her Kathleen Ferrier show) and her story telling ability has often been shared with lunchtime audiences. You may even find yourself joining in!
Monday 7th to Friday 11th December 2009
1.10pm in the rehearsal room.
These popular lunchtime productions often sell out, so book your seat early. Limited to 60 seats per day.
