Derby Theatre gains a place in the Arts Council England National Portfolio.

 Derby Theatre has been successful in gaining a place in Arts Council England’s National Portfolio. This is both a marker of excellence for the Theatre and a provision of three years of funding from the UK’s leading cultural funder. The funding has been awarded to help achieve Arts Council England’s (ACE’s) goal of ‘Great Art for Everyone’. ACE describes the National Portfolio as:

A rich variety of organisations across the country, reflecting the real quality and excellence of the arts in England. Strenuous efforts have been made to ensure that ambition, artistic exploration and pioneering spirit are kept alive, that great work can continue, that inspirational leadership is developed and supported, and that a vibrant countrywide ecology is, as far as possible, maintained.

Along with our unique partnership with the University of Derby, this award will ensure we can continue making top-quality productions right here in Derby, attract the best of touring theatre, and offer even more inspiring opportunities for audiences to take part and remain a thriving hub for culture in the city.
