The Theatre Royal Plymouth is the largest and best attended regional producing theatre in the UK and the leading promoter of theatre in the South West. There are two distinctive performance spaces, the Theatre Royal and the Drum Theatre as well as TR2, the award-winning theatre production and education centre. 

The Theatre Royal seats 1320, but has a unique ability to compress the auditorium, creating a more intimate performance space of 791. The range of work presented and produced is incredibly extensive including major touring drama and musical productions as well as welcoming leading opera and dance companies to the South West. 

The Drum Theatre is an exceptional venue in the South West that has built a national reputation for the quality of its programme and its innovative, cutting-edge work in the fields of new writing and physical theatre. This was acknowledged in 2007 when the Drum Theatre was awarded the Peter Brook Empty Space Award.
