Frequently asked questions
What are the venue hire costs for the auditorium and full theatre?
For a half-day booking, the auditorium-only hire is £13,200 (+VAT) and the entire venue (auditorium plus all foyer spaces) is £21,890 (+VAT). Additional staffing costs and technical requirements including AV are quoted separately and are mandatory add-ons to the base venue fee.
When is the theatre available for hire?
The theatre is available for weekday daytime events only, as Monday through Saturday evenings are reserved for their own productions with performances typically at 19:30. Sunday hires may be possible depending on the production schedule, but availability must be confirmed in advance.
What is the capacity of the auditorium?
The auditorium holds approximately 900 people depending on the existing configuration. The flexible space can be arranged in end-on, thrust, or promenade formats to suit different event requirements.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Production schedules are not confirmed far in advance, with September 2026 schedules still unconfirmed as of current communications. It's recommended to enquire later in the year for dates in the following year, as the theatre may be in production changeover between shows even when not performing.
What happens if there are performances on my requested date?
If the theatre has performances scheduled (typically two shows on Saturdays at 14:30 and 19:30), the space is completely unavailable for hire. The venue will decline bookings for any dates with scheduled performances or technical rehearsals.
Can I hire the theatre for evening events?
Evening hires are generally not available Monday through Saturday due to their own production schedule with 19:30 performances. Friday evening events are specifically mentioned as unavailable due to performance commitments.
What technical and AV capabilities are included?
The theatre has state-of-the-art technical capabilities for maximum audio-visual impact, but specific AV requirements are quoted separately as additional costs. Technical support and equipment are not included in the base venue hire fee.
Is catering available and what are the options?
Food and beverage packages are available through their catering partner St. John if desired. Catering is an optional add-on service and not included in the base venue hire costs.
What time restrictions apply to daytime events?
Daytime events can run from 9am to 1pm for half-day bookings. Events must end before evening performances, and specific end times depend on the performance schedule for that day.
Can I use the theatre set for my event?
The theatre offers the unique opportunity to hold conferences or presentations on the set of a Bridge Theatre production, depending on the existing configuration and production schedule.
