Theatre Guild Glasgow, here you'll find the latest information, photos, memories, chat and competitions that you crave together with some of the finest, most innovative and downright FUN features you could wish for in a musical theatre website!! The company was founded in 1960 by a group of experienced players on the Glasgow amateur musical circuit. These like minded individuals were disenchanted by the lack of variety of musical productions performed in the city. At the time it seemed like there was endless repetition of the tried and tested musical formula involving an endless rehash of only a few different shows. The group agreed to form their own club and set out to perform new and rarely performed shows - the shows that the other clubs said "just couldn't be done by amateurs".
