Savoy Theatre (Monmouth) Development Trust
Registered Charity No. 1102792
The purpose of the trust is to develop the theatre, which is built on the oldest theatre site in Wales, to enable it to become a first class venue that can accommodate both live theatre and cinema.
The trust is raising the funds needed to fully restore the fabric of the building to its original splendour and to modernise the equipment to the standard required of a modern theatre.
How you can help
In total the work required will cost £250,000, and the trustees are determined that this dream will become a reality. This theatre is a treasure and must be saved and used for the enjoyment of future generations. Please contact us to offer your time, skills or donations, or simply if you wish to be kept informed of our progress.
