Guide to Theater Venues in the United Kingdom

Find a UK theater venue in which to produce your work


Theater in the UK is very strong, and the selection of theater venues in the United Kingdom and and Great Britain from which to choose are seemingly limitless. A list of theater venues in the UK is available, but here you can find information that will help you in seeking the best theater venue for you, whether they are Northampton theater venues or theatre venues in North London.

Another possibility for UK theater venues is holding your production outside. A number of theater companies in the UK have found great success by holding their productions on the grounds of historical properties, in city squares, as well as in pubs or even on water towers. As Shakespeare, the great bard, once wrote, "All the world's a stage.” Here are the best options for you to consider when looking for a UK theater venue.

1. Look for UK theater venues in outside London.

2. Find theater venues in North London and London.

3. Explore outdoor theater venues in the UK.


Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

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.
