In the charity's own words
Medway Little Theatre provides an opportunity for members to participate in theatrical performances both on stage and behind the scenes. We also run two groups where younger members can learn and gain experience and confidence. We provide affordable and sometimes challenging theatre for the people of Medway and beyond, as well as making the building available for hire to other local groups.
