We are thrilled to announce that our new production Wild has officially begun it’s national tour this Autumn! The tour opened with a sold out performance at Thimblemill Library on 8th October, right here in the Black Country, where it all began.

Last month we bid a fond and final farewell to Frances and Steve, who exited stage left after an incredible 28 years with BCT. With the help of our extended BCT family and friends, we marked their departure with a surprise celebration in their honour.

Last year was one of the busiest in Black Country Touring’s history. Take a look back at the achievements of our community promoters, artists, partners and team over the past year…

Last Friday we concluded our Summer run of performances Return to Sender at the Black Country Living Museum - a heartfelt, funny, entertaining short show exploring migration, identity and belonging in 1960s Britain.

The Big Family Theatre Weekend brought the community together for a two-day festival of outdoor performances, activities and family fun at Haden Hill Park. Take a look at some of our favourite moments captured in the photos!

An Indian woman arrives outside an industrial building in the Black Country.  It's a summer's day in  the 1960s, yet she is in winter clothes, a thick winter coat and with a suitcase in her hand. Unable or unwilling to speak, the only clue as to why she is here is the piece of headed notepaper she produces from the case. Who is she? Where has she come from? Why is she here?

Come and join us at Haden Hill House and Park in Cradley Heath for a jam-packed summer’s weekend of performances and activities for all the family!

We are delighted to announce that Genevieve Say will be joining Black Country Touring (BCT) as our new Artistic Director in June. Genevieve brings 20 years’ experience as an independent performer, choreographer and movement director working across theatre and dance.
