Hessle Theatre Company has been creating theatre since it was founded in 1922 as Hessle Operatic & Dramatic Society. We have been presenting an annual musical at Hull New Theatre since 1958, and also drama productions at Hull Truck Theatre and other local venues.

The Company stages two main productions each year.

The Spring production is staged at the Hull New Theatre in March, and is the largest show the company produces each year. Auditions for this are usually in July with rehearsals starting in September.

The Autumn production is smaller, though equally important, and is staged either at Hull Truck Theatre or another local venue.

In between the two productions we also produce a successful Concert Season. Our soloists and Company perform a popular and varied programme of classics, old and new favourites and songs from West End and Broadway shows. Along with these concerts we also perform Christmas Concerts, singing a selection of traditional carols and favourite Christmas songs.
