FARNHAM THEATRE ASSOCIATION
Welcome to the FTA campaign for a new theatre for Farnham!
Following the loss of the Redgrave Theatre, in the absence of a replacement, our website Performance Hub offers you links to over 60 local amateur and professional theatre creators, productions and venues within a 60 mile radius of Farnham.
FTA requires Farnham’s nationally acclaimed reputation for theatre to be preserved and we protect the archives of The Castle and the Redgrave Theatres.

We now have a Patron: Stephen Mangan
We are delighted that Stephen Mangan has agreed to be our new Patron. Stephen performed at The Redgrave in 1994-5, acting in George Dandin and Mrs. Warren's Profession before going on to have a celebrated career in theatre, radio, film and television. We are immensely grateful to Stephen for his support of the FTA and look forward to welcoming him back to Farnham in the future.

He can now be seen starring opposite Kristin Scott Thomas in an acclaimed production of The Cherry Orchard at the Harold Pinter Theatre.
