The Whitefield Garrick Society has its roots in the Wartime Home Guard Concert Party.
For many years plays were presented in the All Saints Church Hall. In 1975 the rehearsal room converted previously from a small machine shop in Bank Street, underwent a further transformation into a small theatre.
During the next few years the facilities were improved until in 2002 land was purchased and the present theatre was constructed.
In 2014/15 a new foyer, bar, kitchen and store were added. Again in 2016 improvements were made to the original part of the building increasing dressing room space, relocating some facilities and standardising decor.

For Billy, an energetic imagination makes life tolerable but well-nigh intolerable for all around him, lying his way into and out of every situation
