Mikron Theatre Group

Small Scale on a Big Scale

Multi-award-winning Mikron was founded in 1972, and 2022 marks Mikron’s 50th year of bringing professional theatre to your doorstep. Mikron is the UK’s most prolific theatre company, touring to over 120 venues per year. We tour on our narrowboat, Tyseley, in the summer and by road in spring and autumn, to every conceivable type of venue, reaching audiences that other companies cannot.

We have 2 new shows for this year:

Raising Agents: 100 years of the WI

Join us for our brand new revival! On the threshold of one century into the next, this tale of hobbyists and lobbyists asks how much we should know our past or how much we should let go of it. Above all else, like the WI itself, Raising Agents is a story of friendship.

Red Sky at Night: The wild and wonderful world of weather

The weather is changing. And Hayley must tell the world, hold onto her brolly and her microphone, and walk into the eye of the storm. Bring your anorak. And maybe your factor 50. Well, you never know.

Please visit our website for the Tour Dates. More dates are being added all the time.
