Get involved

The Elgiva is the creative heart of Chesham. A space where imagination, community and performance is celebrated. From theatre and comedy to film, dance and local events, our programme offers something for every taste and every generation.

Proudly rooted in the Cultural Town of Bucks, we showcase local talents alongside outstanding touring productions, bringing people together to experience the joy, connection and inspiration that theatre spaces create.

Elgiva Young Company

This is where theatre begins. Our Young Company invites young people to explore, experiment and have fun while discovering how theatre works and building confidence through creativity. We support ages 5-18 to express themselves freely and feel confident being exactly who they are. In a welcoming and supportive environment, members can learn, create and develop a lifelong love for performance and storytelling.
