Gifts in Wills
We invite you to play a vital role in the future of our Theatre. By leaving a gift in your Will, your support allows us to continue to create theatre that excites, engages and challenges; that inspires imaginations and senses of adventure; and that encourages new levels of understanding that changes worlds.
Pitlochry Festival Theatre is unique. Since 1951, we’ve been the artistic heart and soul of Highland Perthshire. Attracting over 100,000 visitors, every year, we’re so much more than simply a place to come and see a show. We’re Scotland’s only remaining end-to-end producing theatre, playing a vital role in ensuring Scotland’s creative community endures.
We’re committed to nurturing an exciting cultural future for Scotland: from community engagement to creative development, from sustainable practice to artistic collaboration, from showcasing new works to staging timeless classics. We rely on the commitment and investment of those who similarly share our vision for the future.
By making a gift in your Will, you’re showing your support for Pitlochry Festival Theatre, and ensuring our future remains bright and nurtures the creativity for future generations.
The impact of your gift:
- Creating magic on stage; theatre that is created end-to-end here in Scotland
- Nurturing the talent of those who appear on our stages, as well as the talented teams backstage from technicians, to box office; we’re a major supporter of employment in the region.
- Engaging with all our communities. Your support enables programmes like our school project, Youth Company, Drama Club and so much more to take place.
