The Gooch Charitable Trust (Ilminster)
Warehouse Theatre
The Warehouse Theatre is owned and run by Ilminster Entertainment Society, a registered charity formed in 1947. The society presents at least five productions in the theatre every year including its very popular Christmas Show. The theatre is also used regularly by many other community groups including The Cinema at the Warehouse which presents films every three weeks; local schools who present their end of year plays there; The Ilminster Belles (choir) and The Thursday Group which meets each week for lectures on a wide range of subjects.
The Gooch Trust has been happy to support The Warehouse Theatre in the past but most recently we have been delighted to be able to support them as they work towards their ambition to purchase The Old Bakery building which is next door to their current premises. This extra space would provide much needed storage for scenery and costumes and at the same time allow them to create extra rehearsal space and dressing rooms.
