Explore UK theater venues outside London
There are many theaters in Great Britain and the UK from which to choose located outside London in buildings that are historic as well as modern.
I recommend: One of the theater venues in the United Kingdom is the
Spinney Hill Theatre at the Northampton School For Girls, which is expanding its use for public events. Another possibility is
The Arena Theatre located in the West Midlands, which advertises rooms and space available for hire.
The Castle (Wellingborough) is a theater in England available for hire, though it is necessary to book well in advance thanks to its popularity as a theater venue in the United Kingdom. The
Norden Farm Centre for the Arts is another one of the theaters in England that you can use as a theater venue with some advance notice.
Find UK theater venues in North London and London
London and North London is home to many theaters, which can serve as wonderful venues for your production.
I recommend: The Courtyard Theatre is one theater venue in the UK that has more than one room available for hire within the walls of the theater. Another theater in Great Britain that functions well as a theater venue is the
Etcetera Theatre in London. North London is home to the
Arts Depot, which is a theater venue that has space for hire.
Treat the outside as your theater venue in the UK
Don't let yourself be pinned inside. Instead, use the world as your stage.
I recommend: Ashgill Forest Theatre near Wigton in Cumbria is a wonderful open-air theater venue in the United Kingdom. Another outdoor venue is the
Laban in Greenwich, South East London that has a lovely outdoor theater and gardens available for hire. Use city squares as your outdoor theater venue. One prime example is the city center of Canterbury, which has tourists of many nationalities visiting the historical location. By contacting the
Canterbury City Council, you can apply for an entertainment permit, which will allow you to produce your event. Contact the City Council of other cities to use their city squares as outdoor theatre venues. A lovely outdoor historical theater venue in the United Kingdom is on the grounds of the
Ashton Court Estate outside Bristol. Contact the events team to set up your theater production.
