Quondam

Quondam is a professional performing arts company based in the English Lake District. We are partnered with communities and community groups throughout the north of England and southern Scotland.

We operate an accessible arts facility and manage arts development programmes.
Our philosophy is that everyone in society has the right to experience the thrill and joy of expressing themselves through their own creativity.  Quondam’s work is open to all.

Our professional artists focus their skills on encouraging and developing the artist in all of us. We collaborate with groups to make new work that springs from the culture and interests of the members.  We encourage work that tells stories, because our stories define who we are, and what we will become.

The Company’s production base in Penrith, The Play Station, complements what we do and is one of the best rehearsal spaces in the region.  It’s available to book by the hour, day, or weekend. 

Take a tour of our website, get in touch and let’s meet.
We’ll provide the coffee and biscuits.

The Play Station has been an ideal base to develop the BlueJam Youth Music Project for the last two years. Quondam staff are enthusiastic and welcoming and the young musicians relax and treat the place as a space they can really use fully.
