Queen Mary Theatre Company is a platform for students from any subject with an interest in the performing arts. Experiment and develop your creative skills in an encouraging and collaborative environment. Whether your interest lies in acting, directing, writing, costume & makeup, administration, production, tech, or simply being a spectator, QMTC offers an avenue for you to get involved, make new friends, develop your craft and, above all, have fun!
QMTC puts on upwards of 15 shows a year in a range of festivals that you can get involved in! In the summer we take four shows to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
We also host regular socials, movie nights, and our monthly variety night Slappin' Da Bass where our members can sign up and perform whatever their heart desires.

This chilled out evening of performances is the best place to meet new people and show your talent(s)! Even if you are not performing, it's a great place to be on the last thurday of the month. (its also free so why not make an appearance...)

Our annual musical is finalised and ready to be viewed by all of you! Come along to sing all your childhood favourates with our jocks, brainiacs, thespians and cheerleaders!! (make sure to dress up as whatever clique you identify with or Sharpay will get mad ;)
Other opportunities
Running a workshop
Interested in hosting a workshop for a specific area in the vast world of theatre? Just fill in our running a workshop interest form and we'll be in contact!
Play in a day
If you've got the outline of a script or the first draft and you're looking to test it out and get feedback on what could be changed, Play in a day is the event for you. Fill in the form, we will find you a cast and you will have a day to reherse (blocking, use of the stage and set, etc) before performing (with the script) for an audience to get a gist of how your writing harmonises with bodies onstage. Honestly the most time efficient way to see people's acting abilities if you're looking to put on a prepared play at a festival like Anything Goes.
