Why does it sound so good in here? Because we built it that way. Our 406-seater auditorium boasts a large, 14-metre stage equipped with versatile lighting, a professional surround-sound system, and live-streaming capabilities.
Set the scene for a memorable and comfortable performance. Our raised proscenium stage has full lighting, generous wing space, and dressing rooms for up to 50. A foyer and café bar offers a warm welcome before guests make their way to the tiered theatre seating.
What do film nights look like on the really big screen? It’s time to find out. Our DCI cinema projector and plush theatre-style seats will give everyone a crisp, uninterrupted view. While our surround-sound system offers a truly immersive experience.
