Interested in the theatre and how it all began? Want to experience what it feels like to stand on stage or ever wondered where the actors hang out between scenes? There will be three tours throughout the day which will take you on a journey behind the scenes so you can get a glimpse into how we create our outstanding shows and discover the rich history of our much-treasured theatre. In addition, you will be able to experience the newly unveiled and refreshed images on our theatre walls, showcasing the rich history of Stratford East productions providing visitors with a visual journey through our most memorable moments.
If you have any questions about anything that’s on offer, please contact us on openday@stratfordeast.com
We are delighted to say that this day has been made possible thanks to the generosity of the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
