[2][5] Former Caravan Stage Company member Nick Hutchison (son of Jeremy Hutchinson, an English Baron, and actress Dame Peggy Ashcroft[8]) became the founding Artistic Director of the Caravan Farm Theatre.

[2][3][5] Caravan Farm Theatre soon began producing a mix of original and classic works for local audiences, often utilising the skills of actors, designers, musicians, and technicians who lived on or near the farm property.

After a brief period of operations under an interim group, composer and writer Allen Cole took over as the new Artistic Director.

[2] Cole served in that role until 1998, when he was replaced by Estelle Shook (whose first exposure to the company was in 1979 when her mother took a job there as a cook[5]) and Jennifer Brewin as Co-artistic Directors.

[4] The rain venue allows the company to continue performances despite inclement weather, for audiences of up to 200 people.
