We've had a makeover!

We are delighted to invite you into the venue to view the newly refurbished areas and facilities. Following the unveiling of exciting refurbishment plans in July 2024, the theatre has been in a period of refurbishment for several months, whilst operating a reduced programme.

With refurbishment now complete, we recently held a successful reopening event with community groups, sponsors, partners, trustees, stakeholders and membership holders in attendance. This was a great opportunity for supporters to explore the new spaces, meet some of our team and celebrate our journey into this new chapter.

The refurbishment was made possible through our fantastic performance at the box office after the national lockdown for COVID-19 and the primary focus was on enhancing the venue's front-of-house areas including box office, bars and toilets, and improving accessibility. 

We would like to thank the project team including architects Aaron Chetwynd, interior designers Designs Unlimited, access consultants Nimbus, project managers Virtus Consult and of course, experienced contractors Medlock FRB who delivered the project within a matter of weeks.

Our Café Bar (formerly the Green Room Cafe) offers a beautiful, colourful and warm new space for visitors to meet in, enjoy a drink and perhaps even a cake or two. The new Café Bar will be open to the public from Monday to Saturday every week, from 10am to 2pm. The box office has also had a refresh, and now boasts a large service counter and foyer area to welcome you in.
