Welcome to the Strode Theatre website

Skip to navigation

We will shortly be switching over to our brand-new website, which will list all our events in consecutive order. If you were hoping to see the new site up by now, I apologise, but we have been so busy in the box office that we have not had the time to get the new site quite ship-shape. We're hoping to go live with it by the end of this week.
(There is currently no facility for booking tickets directly through this website, but we are regularly investigating possibilities.)
To book tickets or for any additional information, please contact the Box Office by phone.

Box Office opening hours:
Monday - Friday 10.30am - 6.30pm
Saturday 10.30am - 2pm
Sundays & Bank Holidays closed.

Brochure Download 9Mb

The April - July season is now booking.
