Your Visit

We can't wait to welcome you to The Little Theatre!

Whether you're visiting us for a show, looking to get involved with the theatre or the Nairn Drama Club, or looking to hire the venue you will receive a warm welcome.

The Little Theatre is owned and operated by Nairn Drama, and is staffed entirely by volunteers, as such there isn't a permanent presence in the theatre or 'box office' as you might expect in larger venues and we're not really able to accommodate 'drop-in' visits.
