Coal OrchardThe Brewhouse Theatre & Arts Centre is creative hub for the region, continually offering high quality experiences which entertain, stimulate and inspire the communities we serve.
We operate from purpose built premises in Coal Orchard, near the centre of Taunton. The Building opened in March 1977 and currently comprises a 350 seat Main House, The Brewhouse Gallery and Link visual art exhibition spaces, The Studio, an adaptable space for film and small scale performance, the Cultivate Hub, a creative making space, and a Cafe Bar. Admin offices are provided on the first floor of a Grade II listed Georgian building – 'The Old Brewery House' – which gave us our name. We are open Tues – Sat offering a varied programme of events for all ages, from comedy, music, theatre, exhibitions, workshops and classes.
We also provide an oasis in the centre of Somerset’s county town for artists and creatives to meet and engage with the community through sharing of work, workshops, mentoring and participatory events.
At the heart of what we do is the promotion of culture and the understanding of how it can enhance and enrich people’s lives.
For Christmas 2009 The Brewhouse staged an exciting new adaptation of When Santa Fell to Earth by internationally renowned children's author Cornelia Funke to critical and commercial success.
"refreshingly evokes the sheer wonder of Christmas"
