ROOMS FOR HIRE

The Old Nick is a unique building, a combination of the theatre premises, rehearsal or meeting spaces and storage.  For images of the building, please click on to our Virtual Tour page. 

The Auditorium is an intimate and well equipped space, usable both in the round and in thrust style, with seating for up to 55 people, a fully equipped computerised lighting desk and sound system.  GTC can provide expertise to design and operate lighting or sound on request for hire events.  Off the auditorium there is an attractive Dressing Room which could also be used as a small meeting area, with an additional storage room also available as a dressing room if required.  The Old Nick also houses an extensive Costume Store, and costumes are available to hire at competitive rates.

On the same level as the auditorium, we have an intimate Licensed Bar, which is well stocked with beers, spirits, soft drinks and confectionary.  The Bar can be manned on request for hire events.  In addition, there is a Coffee Room, with tea and coffee making facilities, which can also be made available to hirers.

Downstairs, in the area which was formerly the cells, we have a Box Office and are able to offer design and printing service for posters, flyers and tickets at very competitive rates.  We also have Furniture and Props Stores, with items which are again available for hire.  In addition, we also have two Rehearsal/Meeting Rooms which are also available.
