‘The revived theatre is a triumph of design and imagination, allowing audiences an unrivalled experience of playgoing in the Georgian age’ – Marcus Binney, Country Life

Winner of The Stage award for special achievement in regional theatre, 2003

‘The refurbishment represents something more than mere preservation. That it could be achieved is thanks to the impressive grassroots support and interest this venue draws from a wide geographical radius and age range, in an area not amply provided with theatre. The level of commitment shown over many years by a large team of volunteers has enabled it to survive financially and develop artistically. Its existence and its growth are testament to its success as a theatre truly at the heart of its local community’.
