About Chesil Theatre
Chesil Theatre (Winchester Dramatic Society) is based in the heart of Winchester, presenting up to ten productions a year, ranging from traditional classics to contemporary works. Chesil Theatre also encourages new writing through its biennial festival TakeTen, runs drama workshops, outreach community projects, play readings, two lively youth theatre groups and offers stagecraft and technical training. The Company has been performing for over 150 years.

Since 1966 the Chesil Theatre has been the Society’s permanent home - a former 12th-century church in Chesil Street, Winchester. This heritage building currently provides an intimate 75-seat studio-style theatre and versatile performance space with plans for future extended development.
