Support Us

A little, a lot. A penny, a pound. Every individual donation we receive makes such a difference to us and means that together, we can transform lives.

Ways to give

Help us celebrate... take a look at our 70th birthday wishlist!

As a registered charity, every donation plays a meaningful part in supporting the work you see, both at the SJT and within our local communities.

Your generosity helps us nurture talent and create new plays, host incredible visiting productions, and provide opportunities for new writers, directors and performers. Thanks to you, we can give everyone – regardless of age or background – the chance to be creative.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making this possible.

Five easy ways to support the SJT

  1. Donate just £2 (or more if you can spare it) when you buy tickets

  2. Join our Circle membership scheme

  3. Donate to the New Work Fund

  4. Sponsor a seat in The Round or The McCarthy

  5. Remember us in your will

Your generosity shapes our future!

The SJT brings entertainment to thousands of people every year through our produced work, visiting productions, films and live streamings, and more. We’re renowned for our commitment to new writing, and have been the starting point for many now-familiar names. We also run an extensive programme of education and community work, encouraging everyone in our community to get creative through a variety of projects and regular classes for all ages and abilities.

And let's talk about our iconic Art Deco Grade II-listed building which needs to be continually maintained to ensure it remains a wonderful place for future generations to enjoy. Your support helps us make all this possible, so we’re forever grateful for all you do. Even if you can’t support us financially, please pop in for a coffee when you can and don’t forget to shout about us from the rooftops – it all makes a huge difference!
