About Progress Theatre
Welcome to Progress Theatre, a dynamic cultural establishment nestled in the heart of Reading, United Kingdom. Founded in 1947 by a group of passionate drama enthusiasts, our institution has grown to become a point of interest for theatregoers, artists, and art enthusiasts alike.
Located at The Mount, Reading RG1 5HL, Progress Theatre offers an awe-inspiring experience for art lovers. The institution's intimate 96-seat theatre is the perfect venue for plays, musicals, improv shows, and other live performances. Our stage has hosted many remarkable productions over the years, including classic plays such as "The Importance of Being Earnest" and modern hits such as "Woyzeck" and "Angels in America".
At Progress Theatre, there is never a dull moment. We have a packed line-up of events throughout the year, featuring both critically acclaimed and up-and-coming artists. Our theatre is uniquely committed to promoting new and undiscovered talents through our "Scratch Nights" programme, which affords emerging performers the opportunity to stage their shows on our platform.
We take pride in our institution's vibrant and inclusive atmosphere. Our doors are open to all, and we are dedicated to fostering a safe, welcoming space where everyone can express themselves freely. We are wholly run and operated by volunteers, making us a thriving community of artists and supporters. We strongly believe in the transformative power of the arts and its ability to build connections and inspire change.

Reviews of Progress Theatre
"Terrific fun yesterday at Progress, The Lonesome West is fast-paced, dark, and funny. They absolutely did it justice. Front of house was delightful, and the drinkies are well priced. Well worth a visit. Cheeky photo at interval."
"We've visited the Progress on many occasions over the years and we've never regretted going to watch their fine amateur productions. Always great work by the actors and crew. Refreshments are available at unusually reasonable prices at their in-house bar before the show and during the interval. We saw a production of Liars Teeth last week. It was very much up their usual high standards."
"Excellent small Theatre, well appointed and run. Production of Jeeves & Wooster was hilarious and brilliantly acted and staged. A great evening out."
"Great local theatre! Went to see Jeeves & Wooster last weekend, had immense fun, it was exactly what was needed that day. The place is small, but cozy. They have a lovely bar, and exhibit artwork by local artists in the lobby witn option to buy. We bought a beautiful piece and the coordinator said they display works from different artists every new show."
"I went to see the play Angels in America here. This is a very intimate theatre. About a hundred seats max and a very small stage. This doesn't diminish at all from the powerful performances given by the talented actors. The staff are lovely and you get the vibe 'we are family here'."
