support us

The National Theatre of Scotland’s mission is to create as many opportunities as possible for people to be part of that experience, as audience members or as theatre makers.

As the country’s national company and the sector’s largest employer, we recognise our responsibility to support and promote the networks of world-class theatre artists, technicians, companies and venues who make up our sector.

We are a registered charity, core funded by the Scottish Government, but we rely on the generous support of our donors, sponsors and funders to maximise the work we do across the country.
