Trowbridge Town Hall will be part of an "epic" nationwide production which will conclude at the National Theatre.
The venue will host the third episode of The Odyssey, which will be performed at multiple venues across the country.
The new collaboration with the National Theatre will see the performance produced in partnership with local communities, theatres and artists nationwide.
Organisers say the show is in celebration of the fifth anniversary of Public Acts, and will be made in collaboration with hundreds of community members and professional artists from across the country.
After the four episodes of The Odyssey take place across the country in Spring 2023, the fifth and final episode will feature on the famous Olivier stage of the National Theatre in August of that year.
Other episodes will be staged in Sunderland, Doncaster and Stoke-on-Trent.
Alan Wright, Director of Trowbridge Town Hall, said, “It is such an honour to be working with the National Theatre and our collaborative partners in Sunderland, Doncaster and Stoke-On-Trent. However, even more thrilling is the opportunity of working with so many community groups in Trowbridge over the next twelve months, giving so many of our residents the opportunity to inform our work."
The Odyssey will be written by playwright Florence Espeut-Nickless and performed by members of the local community.
