A new community studio theatre is headed to Bath soon, BBC reports. Theatre Royal Bath's new "fringe-style" 40-seat venue, called Venue 4 in St John's Place, will give grassroots groups a place to stage their shows.
A fundraising campaign has been launched to raise the money required to open the venue.
"This project is about opening doors to a new community theatre for Bath, to anyone keen to get started in the world of performance," said Danny Moar, the theatre's director. "This will be a stage where everyone's story can be told."
The theatre's head of community engagement, Katherine Lazare, said that the idea for this venue came from a lack of "well-resourced, accessible spaces and minimal opportunities for participants to access the theatre industry."
