Curious about what The Atkinson’s theatre and studio spaces look like in the daylight?
Drop in and explore the stunning architecture of our historic building, and see how these vibrant spaces have evolved over the years.
Our friendly staff and volunteers will be on hand to answer your questions and share fascinating stories about the performers and memorable events that have brought these spaces to life.
This event takes place as part of Heritage Open Days
Heritage Open Days is England’s largest community led festival of history and culture, involving thousands of local volunteers and organisations. Every year in September it brings people together to celebrate their heritage, community and history. Stories are told, traditions explored, and histories brought to life. It’s your chance to see hidden places and try out new experiences – and it’s all FREE.
