Our Alumni Youth Theatre tour will bring together youth theatre alumni and current MYT members to create and tour a new production, encouraging skills development, mentorship and collaboration.

At An Tobar and Mull Theatre, we’re supporting a research project aimed at understanding how political polarisation impacts the arts and culture sector and exploring ways to foster inclusive, respectful dialogue within our work.

As we near the end of the year, there’s a palpable sense of excitement—and a little nostalgia—in the air here at An Tobar and Mull Theatre. This past month has been all about preparing for the future while celebrating our community, creativity, and the legacy of those who have made a lasting impact on the arts in Mull.

New Beginnings: Starting my role as Marketing Assistant for An Tobar and Mull Theatre. I'm embarking on a new chapter in my career, and I couldn't be more excited.

Thanks to funding from the Charlotte Aitken Trust and Wooden Spoon, we’ll be transforming An Tobar with a new Writers' Studio, Production Studio, and Sensory Space.

I’ll soon be embarking on a professional development adventure to the Venice Biennale, thanks to the support and funding from Creative Scotland and the British Council.

As we come to the close of a very busy season, I am already well into the process of lining up potential theatre performances for 2025. These will cover an exciting range of genres and themes incorporating storytelling, music, dance, clowning and more.

Fundraising life this year has been…well, really not that fun. The environment at the moment for the arts is incredibly challenging and sometimes completely overwhelming for fundraisers, artists, and arts organisations. This year has been a year like no other.

I’ve been collecting (or is it hoarding) records since I was twelve, that’s a lot of records…

Welcome to this month’s General Manager Blog, where we share key updates across various departments, including Human Resources, Finance, and our Café and Shop.

Roll on the Christmas fun
On the first of December we have our Kid’s Crafty Christmas at An Tobar which includes a guest with a white beard in a funny red suit, who could that be?

We were very lucky to receive funding from the Pebble Trust for a Green Education programme for 2025, so we are looking for a practitioner to bring this interesting project to fruition.

Opening Night Saturday 1 March from 6pm-8pm, all are welcome for drinks and nibbles. Jemima is an artist and educator of ancestral skills, based in the islands of Scotland's Inner and Outer Hebrides. Seaweed Shelter invites viewers into the liminal ‘moons-land’ where land meets sea, inspired by the wild shores of Gometra and the Shiant Islands and the isle of Mull.

This five-day workshop will show you a number of methods of creating landscape drawings of the built environment and wild wonders of Mull.
