Downright Homespun Radio Company Foot-stompin' music and cutthroat-razor comedy three times a year, live from the Grand Ol' Eastgate Theatre in downtown Peebles, Scotland.

Stroll through our archive of photos and don't forget to 'like' our page. From humble beginnings in the Manor Valley in 1896 the Downright Homespun Radio Company has grown to the international phenomenon we know and love today. Its offices in the garage down by the Drill Hall bring thousands of pilgrims annually, vintage recordings of early shows fetch high prices on eBay and queues for its show tickets dwarf even the famous Forsyth's Christmas Eve Turkey queue.

We've been performing at our Grand Old Eastgate Theatre since 1896. Now a recently-formed committee is trying to kill the Theatre's vital funding. You know what to do.

🚨 Eastgate Theatre Needs Your Help 🚨

We are facing a funding crisis that threatens our very future. Live Borders has threatened to completely withdraw our core grant from April 2025—a devastating blow that would severely impact everything we do for the community.

Eastgate Theatre is more than just a venue—it’s a creative hub that has been at the heart of Tweeddale for over 20 years. We need your voice to help secure our future.

Every message of support counts. Together, we can protect the arts and keep Eastgate Theatre thriving for years to come.
