Grand Theatre
A Victorian theatre designed in 1894 by theatre architect Frank Matcham, with gold-decorated interiors, still staging musicals and comedy today.
The Grand Theatre is a Grade II* listed building and is considered one of Frank Matcham's finest theatre designs. Its horseshoe-shaped auditorium is decorated with gilded plaster ornament and red velvet seats. Today it stages touring musicals, ballet, comedy and Christmas pantomimes, and it occasionally offers backstage tours. It sits in the city centre on Church Street, about a 3-minute walk from the Tower. Book show tickets in advance on the official website.
