About Us

Established in 1989, we are here for the community.

The theatre offers a wide range of events and services from full-scale musicals, plays and tribute shows to the most heart-warming and fun children’s productions. Or perhaps you prefer a movie – we screen films here too!
We have a large fully licenced bar and offer very competitive room hire rates for our Auditorium, West End (Bar) Room and Broadway Room. Why not consider hiring us for your club or group, either as a one off hire or on a regular basis. Private cinema screenings continue to be a popular choice for children and adults alike.
