50th anniversary of Stantonbury Theatre
Posted 16th September 2024This December will be the 50th Anniversary of the opening of Stantonbury Theatre, MK’s first purpose-built theatre. Since its inception, Stantonbury Theatre has endeavored to champion locally produced theatre and support local dance schools and youth theatres in producing the next generation of performers.
Announcements will be made soon with our own celebratory events, but in the meantime, there will be plenty more to commemorate as we are hosting a great selection of comedy, children’s theatre and music along with the local theatre groups coming out in force with etcetera Theatre Company’s Steel Magnolias (13th Oct) and Company MK’s Sister Act (23rd-26th Oct) – Not to mention the anniversary concerts of Olney Brass Band’s 50th (28th Sept), MK Brass’ 40th (19th Oct), The Living Archive’s 40th (6th Oct) and the Wolverton Gilbert & Sullivan Society’s 50th (7th/8th Nov)!
