Venue Hire
The Theatre provides venue hire in the heart of Chipping Norton. Our spaces can be hired for a huge variety of activities, from weddings and parties to cinema hire to meeting rooms. We know how to give you and your guests a warm welcome and a smooth professional experience.
The Spaces
The Auditorium
(Dimensions: 10.33m x 7.58m with Balcony)
Ideal for performances and film screenings as well as lectures, conferences and celebrations, the Auditorium can seat up to 220 guests. Adjoining the Bar and Foyer on the ground floor, it has a complete range of professional lighting and is fully equipped for presentations, DJs, bands and of course live performances.
The Bar
(Dimensions: 8.14m x 6.24m)
Perfect for refreshment breaks, small meetings and as a break out space, the Bar adjoins the Auditorium and overlooks Spring Street. A particular feature of the Bar is its stunning murals, painted by Graham Rust, one of Europe’s finest muralists.
The Gallery
(Dimensions: 7.47m x 7.88m)
This room, with laminate flooring and excellent natural light, is reached by stairs leading from the Bar (or directly from the Balcony). It provides a tranquil backdrop for regularly changing exhibitions of paintings and photography. The Gallery, is also available for hire outside performance and film showing times, and is perfect for meetings, small parties or as a breakout space. We trust that hirers will enjoy (and respect) the wall hung exhibits!
The Space

This 'room in the sky', situated on the floor above the Gallery and reached by stairs from the Bar and Balcony, is great for stimulating creative thought! A flexible space with carpeted flooring, it is ideal for group work, meetings, interviews or brainstorming sessions.
The Rehearsal Room
