Have you got any more formal names of companies or dates/periods/venues for what you're looking for?

County Theatre, Bangor - repertory company 1940's/1950's.
Guild Hall, Caernarvon -  Caernarvon Repertory company. 1940's/1950's.
I was given a box of old theatre programmes, some from North Wales, by a relative shortly before he died.   I am trying to find 'good' homes for them; thought possibly the two rep co's  might want them for their archives??
I don't want to have to throw them away :'(

Hello Glenys,
             Firstly, please don't throw the programmes away; I'm sure they would be of considerable value to the Gwynedd County Archives and would be a valuable source for anyone researching theatre history in the area. I remember seeing cinema films at the County Theatre before television reduced the audiences and even wrestling shows failed to make it sustainable. It is a nightclub now, I think. Of the Guildhall in Caernarfon I know nothing. If you decide to follow my suggestion I would be happy to recompense you for any carriage costs to myself or the Archives. Please pm me if you want to send to me.

Glad to hear that your cunning post-Christmas stratagem has worked! Look forward to seeing the collection.
