Kidz R Us is a registered, not-for-profit arts charity run almost entirely by volunteers

Our trustees oversee the stability and future of the theatre company. They meet regularly to pool their experience and ensure we are fulfilling our legal obligations and maintaining high standards.

They are supported by a large team of dedicated volunteers, who range in age and experience, and put their heart and soul into whatever part they’re playing, whether that is working in the box office, hosting audiences front-of-house, marketing, chaperoning, costume making, scene painting, hair and make-up, lighting, sound, stage management or photography.
