Worcester Theatres

Worcester Theatres provides a varied choice of bookable performance and event spaces in the centre of Worcester. Its venues include Huntingdon Hall, the Swan Theatre and the Swan Studio, offering organisers a mix of historic character, professional theatre facilities and flexible smaller rooms.

Huntingdon Hall is a Grade II listed former Methodist chapel with seating across two levels, an onsite bar and foyer, a permanent PA system and a distinctive setting suited to concerts, comedy, spoken-word events, talks and other live performances. The Swan Theatre offers a larger auditorium with 360 seats, a raised stage, theatre lighting and sound facilities. Its smaller Swan Studio provides an intimate black-box environment with retractable seating, making it suitable for theatre, talks, rehearsals, workshops and creative sessions.

Organisers can also hire a range of practical spaces for meetings, groups, classes and informal gatherings. These include the Sama Room, theatre foyers and bars, rehearsal studios and the Pop Up Studio. Depending on the room, facilities include tables, chairs, projection options, dance flooring, mirrors, retractable seating and bar service. Capacities range from small meeting groups to audiences of several hundred people.

The team supports external hirers with booking guidance, technical information and ticketing services for performances. The spaces can suit theatre companies, musicians, comedians, community groups, schools, businesses, workshop leaders and organisers planning talks, receptions or cultural events. With central locations, established venues and several room formats, Worcester Theatres offers adaptable options for both public-facing productions and private bookings.
