Front Room Theatre strives to create a holistic experience for its visitors.
Beyond the performances, the venue hosts a fully licensed bar, facilitating social exchanges in a relaxed, convivial ambiance.
Central to the ethos of Front Room Theatre is accessibility and inclusivity.
The venue is designed to be wheelchair accessible, and they operate a 'Pay What You Decide' ticketing system, allowing audiences to pay based on personal circumstances and experience.
By doing so, they hope to make the arts more accessible, accommodating all in the community.
As the theatre continues to redefine community theatre boundaries, it warmly welcomes both seasoned theatre-goers and first-time visitors to experience their exciting new season.
