Welcome to Playgoers

Dartington Playgoers are one of the leading amateur theatre groups in Devon.  We have a long association with Dartington Hall, having been founded there in 1946 by Dorothy Elmhirst.  

We perform regularly in the Barn Theatre, Dartington, and open air each summer in the magical setting of the Dartington Hall estate.  Small-scale studio productions take place at least twice each year at Bogan House in Totnes.  Plus play readings and social events...

Last June, we enjoyed working with professionals from the Royal Shakespeare Company, as part of their Open Stages project.  Members from the Macbeth company travelled to Truro for workshops including voice, movement, text, direction and stage management.  

Please follow the links above to find out more about what's coming and how you can take part.

Auditions for our two summer productions (Time Stood Still - A Play for Totnes and The Taming of the Shrew) will take place on 10th and 11th March - see news page for more information.
