We're Reading Rep, and we're the Ding's leading producing theatre.
We started with just £500 and an idea, and now we're a brick-and-mortar powerhouse producing reimagined classics, West End–quality musicals, fresh new writing, innovative adaptations and - of course - Teddy Bear Story Time.
Support local theatre. Tell your friends. Tell your family. And thank you to everyone who's been on this journey with us <3

How fat was your tie at school?
Originally written in 1987 and now revamped for a post-Covid world, Teechers holds as much relevance today as the day it was written. Full of Godber’s notorious wit and razor-sharp social observations, Teechers places the education system under the microscope to expose the pressures of adolescence against the backdrop of a struggling institution.
But as Salty, Gail and Hobby conclude their performance and leave state education, it appears that Miss Nixon is moving on too… to the local private school.
It's on here 2-13 June.

Fancy winning two tickets to Teechers, the "edgy, observational, funny, political and hard hitting" play by John Godber?
Then take five minutes and fill in the survey in our bio :)

So who's in Teechers then? It's an incredible cast of just three playing multiple people, but in their primary roles are @sophie.sudds as Hobby, @jopatmore as Gail and Levi Payne as Salty!
"The talent the these three have is incredible, taking us on this journey with them, changing characters at speed to keep the story flowing, moving set pieces during scenes or with a choreographed piece of dancing to make the scene changes a little more exciting." North West End
This classic has been updated by John Godber post-Covid, reflecting the even lower value the education system places on drama in schools.
It's on 2-13 June!

Let Bryan Cranston stare into your soul, then come and see him streamed live in All My Sons at the National Theatre on 28 May here at Reading Rep.

so the suitcase is Private Lives, @christopherbonwell is its closing date of 9 May, and we're @orla.osullivan desperately trying to cling onto it.
Basically what we're saying is Private Lives ends in three days and we don't want to let go :'(
