For the community, by the community

The theatre is run by the M.A.T.A. (Minehead Amateur Theatrical Association) Regal Theatre Company, a group of volunteers devoted to bringing to the people of West Somerset a wide variety of quality film and performing arts in the centre of Minehead.

Why the community needs us

West Somerset roads make it difficult to travel to entertainment areas outside the district especially in the summer or in poor weather or at night. The theatre offers the highest possible quality of entertainment and performing art at prices which local people can afford. It also offers a community performance venue which schools and organisations in the area can use for presentations & performance. The high number of volunteers involved provides a vibrant social network which people enjoy.

Our impact on the community

The Friends of the Regal Theatre and community supporters have generously supported the Regal throughout 2016/17. We are currently nearing completion of our roofing project to prevent the raindrops falling on our head! Recently we completed necessary alterations and installed a high quality film screen to improve public film viewing. Is the job over? NO! We are currently working to waterproof walls and improve our hot water system.

Volunteers needed

The Regal Theatre survives on the support of volunteers. We always welcome new people, who can get involved by helping with Front of House, Box Office, Publicity Technical help with shows, Cleaning, Maintenance and Renovation work around the theatre.
