Beverley East Riding Theatre

East Riding Theatre is a vibrant, professional theatre and registered charity located in a converted Baptist chapel in Beverley. Founded by actor and Beverley resident Vincent Regan and achieved through a huge community effort, the theatre opened its doors for the first time in December 2014. This volunteer-led organisation has since delivered an eclectic programme of quality theatre, music and entertainment to the people of HU17 and beyond. For Heritage Open Day in 2024, the theatre opens its doors (free of charge) to members of the public to see this amazing building and visit a real-life working theatre. There will be a chance for you to stand on explore backstage, chat with some of our friendly volunteers and relax in the wonderful theatre cafe bar. Alongside this, GO ONLINE TO download our guided tour through Beverley's theatrical past when you can *find the first theatre in Beverley, *discover what popular entertainment was in the Middle Ages, *learn about the infamous wife sale in Saturday Market. The trail stops at twelve historic locations in the town and takes you on a historic expedition through time with a host of historic figures from Henry V to artist Mary Ewell. At each stopping point you will be immersed in an audio drama bringing to life stories that occurred on that very spot!
