For more than 25 years Stanthorpe Little Theatre Company has fostered community performing arts, drama and music for all ages, staging plays, musicals, concerts, variety shows, film nights and more.

Recent productions include the hilarious RADIO DAZE inspired by the days when radio programs were recorded in front of a live audience, and the very popular TOAD OF TOAD HALL based on the beloved Wind in the Willows.

An annual highlight on the Granite Belt calendar since 2005, is our successful “Shakespeare Under The Stars” series. So far our directors have explored Shakespeare’s comedies – “Midsummer Night’s Dream”, “As You Like It”, “Twelfth Night”, “Taming of the Shrew” and "Much Ado About Nothing".
