…an accessible, thriving venue offering a wide range
of modern facilities and top class entertainment in the heart
of Stafford.
Last season saw Stafford Gatehouse Theatre celebrate its 25th
anniversary year with a full and varied programme and a whole
host of events to mark the milestone, including the introduction
of the phenomenon that is Rock ‘n’ Roll Panto to
the Midlands with Jack and the Beanstalk.
A varied and popular programme of comedy, music, dance, family
shows, and more is in store for this Spring-Summer season. The
venue will see some 5* entertainment hot from the Edinburgh Fringe
Festival 2007, fantastic Youth Theatre Shows and the Summer School
Production of Honk! This year the theatre also
celebrates the eighteenth anniversary of the Open Air Stafford
Festival Shakespeare Production, at Stafford Castle, with the
popular tragedy Hamlet.
The theatre primarily stages the productions of touring companies,
with the addition of Stafford Gatehouse Theatre own productions
of Stafford Festival Shakespeare, Summer School, and Pantomime.
The venue is also a perfect town centre location, amply served
by road and rail, for conferences, exhibitions, auctions, trade
fairs, seminars, dinner dances, rehearsals, meetings, award ceremonies,
workshops, family celebrations or any other special event you
have in mind. Stafford Gatehouse is simply one of the best equipped
and most versatile venues in the region.
