Nestled in the heart of Cliftonville, Margate, The Tom Thumb Theatre has long been a beloved artistic gem by the sea.
This beautifully intimate space, now under new management, is programming theatre, comedy, magic, music, cabaret, poetry, and film.
The theatre will also expand its offering with immersive events, unique experiences, and bespoke private hire, while continuing to champion emerging voices and experimental work.
Magicians Magic Mondays
Open Mic
Behind the closed doors of The Tom Thumb Theatre, a secretive syndicate of magicians come together to create, contrive and compose wonders known only to their craft. This is The Magic Collective.
Keep your eyes peeled for opportunities to see these magicians perform live, here at the theatre.
If you’re passionate about magic and would like to be part of The Magic Collective, developing your skills and working alongside other magicians to improve your craft, we’d love to hear from you.
First meet 21st July
