Bristol Old Vic is home to one of UK theatre's biggest learning and engagement programmes working across the city and runs one of the UK's leading artist development programmes. In 2023 Bristol Old Vic welcomed over 135,000 ticket holders, distributed 4,500 tickets to communities and schools across Bristol and delivered over 20,000 hours of contact time to 15,000 participants.

Theatr Clwyd is Wales’ major drama producing theatre operation, originally built as a Regional Arts Centre. We are also one of only a few remaining production theatres to have all our makers and creators under one roof. It is the home of a highly acclaimed theatre producing company, which also presents much of its work on tour throughout Wales and the rest of the UK. The theatre company produces mainly in English, but also in Welsh. There is a fully integrated Theatre for Young People department which uses the same performers, technicians and creative staff to achieve the same high production values as the mainstream product. The theatre also hosts a variety of touring drama, dance, music and a community Festival in the Summer. There are around 900 public performances per year at the theatre. Theatr Clwyd is supported by the Arts Council of Wales and Flintshire County Council.
