The complex of beautifully restored Grade II listed buildings with state-of-the-art facilities, include a 160 seat cabaret style theatre, a studio theatre, renovated rehearsal rooms, dedicated writers rooms as well as a thriving cafe bar and pub. A creative, outdoor public performance space and gardens adjoins the Quayside theatre for additional opportunity for immersive theatre.
Live Theatre produces work as varied and diverse as the audiences it engages with. Writer Lee Hall whose plays Billy Elliot and The Pitmen Painters were first produced at Live Theatre calls it British Theatre's best kept secret. As well as championing the art of writing for the stage by producing and presenting new plays, Live Theatre unlocks the potential of young people and finds and nurtures creative talent.
Proper food and proper ale is served in their award-winning pub, The Broad Chare, next door and adjoining wine-bar cafe, St Vincent which is the ideal place for pre and post theatre meals.
Open Tue-Fri 12-4pm, and until 8pm when there is an evening performance.
Sat and Sun opening hours vary depending on the performance schedule.
