Did you know?The Old Market used to be a

stables and riding academy...! See photographic evidence: News & Blog online.

You’re spoilt for choice this WINTER. In fact... before you get booking, would now be a good time to consider our membership discount scheme, TOM’s Friends?

This season’s TOM’S PROGRAMME (our own, hand-picked, highly recommended

shows) includes imitating the dog’s incredible adaptation of Hemingway’s A FAREWELL TO ARMS. We’re also thrilled to present Mark Bruce Company’s terrifying, South Bank Award-winning, DRACULA; a Christmas antidote, perhaps?

This Christmas there’s something for you, and younger audiences too. The team behind long-running sell-out club night WHITE MINK bring us WHITE CHRISTMAS. And following the success of Pinocchio (2013) comes THE BOY WHO NEVER GREW UP, inspired by JM Barrie’s Peter Pan - tickets from just £6.00!

See you here soon!
