Details

Converted from a Victorian warehouse in 1977, the Warehouse Theatre retains several of its original features, including picture tiles from the 1880s. A flexible performance area, limitations of space have over time encouraged ingenuity in terms of staging and design for productions. Major re-development of an area including the Warehouse site should include a new venue for this enthusiastic and popular theatre company.
