Information
Richmond Theatre is one of the most exquisite of all the Frank Matcham theatres. It was constructed in 1899 as the Theatre Royal and Opera House and renovated in 1991 and is a Grade 2 listed building. It is now controlled and managed by The Ambassador Theatre Group Ltd, which is celebrated for its productions and ownership of theatre venues throughout the country. Richmond Theatre is very well accepted as one of the most successful theatres in the country exhibiting a wide range of superior performances every year. It welcomes a quarter of a million theatregoers to over 40 spectacular productions a year performing for approximately forty-nine weeks in each year. There are also up to four hundred young people who visit education events, workshops and summer school activities each year. Tours of the historic building, the auditorium and stage area are available to the general public. The Theatre acts as a venue for local arts organisations and charities. The theatre, to begin with called the Richmond Theatre and Opera House, is structured into the familiar stalls, dress and upper circles, with four boxes at dress level. The auditorium is a mixture of gilt detailing and red lavish fabrics, covering seats and front of circles. The theatre is now part of the Ambassador Theatre Group and has a weekly schedule of plays and musicals, generally given by professional touring companies. Pre-West End shows can occasionally be watched here. There is a substantial Christmas and New Year pantomime tradition and many of Britain's leading music hall and pantomime performers have appeared here.
