A Theatre of Timesmiths is a science fiction novel by British writer Garry Kilworth, first published in 1984.

Plot summary A Theatre of Timesmiths is set in a city trapped behind walls of ice, where the computer which runs its heating is about to fail.

Reception Dave Langford reviewed A Theatre of Timesmiths for White Dwarf #54, and stated that "This kind of book demands a stream of small revelations en route to the big ones; Kilworth handles this well, concluding with a leap into metaphysics which might have taken me by surprise if I hadn't read too much Ian Watson. Effectively and colourfully written."
