The WTG was originally based at 'Washington School' and was called the 'Geordie Theatre Group'. It was first formed in 1976 and moved to the 'Art Centre Washington' when it opened in 1977, and was renamed the Washington Theatre Group.

Its members meet at the Washington Arts Centre every Thursday at 7.30pm till 9.30pm. Recent shows have included 'Snow White and the Magic Mirror' - by Peter Marshall (January 2009) & ' Pygmalion' by Bernald Shaw (July - 2008).

Everyone in the group is encouraged to have a go at whatever aspect of the theatre they are interested in, from acting to set building, from directing, producing, scriptwriting to technical, music and costume making. But what is most important is that we have fun and work well as a team, not just for its members but to perform a good show for the its audience and the community.
