Regan De Wynter Williams Producers of fine theatre

Regan De Wynter is a producing house established in 2008. Ben De Wynter and Sasha Regan are both directors and producers who have worked together and independently for over twenty-five years. They toured the UK with Sasha’s critically acclaimed The Pirates of Penzance gaining a reputation for reinventing G&S in a “hysterically funny, delightful and utterly timeless” way. The Production won Best off-West End Production 2010 at The WhatsOnStage Awards 2010, transferring to the beautiful Wilton’s Music Hall and then onto The Rose Theatre, Kingston. It toured Australia in Autumn 2012 culminating in a three week run at Sydney Theatre. Then followed the UK tours of HMS Pinafore (2014) and Pirates (2015). Other productions include: Annie Get Your Gun (Critics Choice), The Pajama Game (Critics Choice), Sweeney Todd (Evening Standard and Time Out Critics Choice & Sunday Express Top), Company, Assassins which won Best Production at The Offies in 2011, Absent Friends, Joking Apart, A Man of No Importance with Olivier award wining Paul Clarkson (Sunday Express Best Musical 2009) which transferred to the Arts Theatre, Iolanthe (Critic’s Choice) at The Union and Wilton’s Music Hall, The Baker’s Wife with Michael Matus and Dames at Sea with Rosemary Ashe. Their critically acclaimed production of Chess, was a sell out at The Union Theatre. Nominations in the Offies include: Lizzi Gee for Best Choreographer in HMS Pinafore, Best Female Lead and Musical Production (On a Clear Day You can See Forever), Best Director and Production (Billy), Best Choreographer (Chess) and Best producer and Artistic Director – Sasha Regan.

In 2015 Regan De Wynter joined forces with Hilary and Stuart Williams, constant supporters of their work, to form Regan De Wynter Williams Productions, which has seen the company tour H.M.S. PinaforeThe Mikado and Iolanthe.

In 2017  Salad Days (critically acclaimed at the Union) successfully transferred to Theatre Royal Bath and subsequently toured the UK in 2018 with Wendi Peters with Sasha’s Iolathe touring the same year to several new venues including Hall For Cornwall, Windsor, East Riding, Bridlington Spa, Exeter,  Bath, Brighton, Cambridge, Malvern, Shrewsbury and Greenwich. In the same year they produced Julie Burchill and Jane Robins controversial new play People Like Us, directed by Ben De Wynter which sold out at The Union Theatre and charted the demise of a book club after Brexit!

2019 saw us back to where it all started at the beautiful Wiltons Music Hall with The Pirates of Penzance. In April 2020 the pandemic prevented a return to Wiltons with H.M.S. Pinafore which we eventually produced in 2022. Instead we were asked to perform at the ATG’s West End venue The Palace Theatre for a limited run in December 2020. 2022 saw H.M.S. at Wilton’s and Winchester and last year we returned with a new production of The Mikado which went on to play Bath, Winchester, Hall for Cornwall and Cambridge.
