Box Office Opening Hours: 

Mon to Fri 10am - 5pm, Sat 12pm - 4pm

After five years the Theatre Royal will shortly complete its capital programme with the addition of  spacious back stage facilities adjoining the new medieval museum, the Choristers Hall. With the opening of the new museum to complement the Bishop's Palace, Waterford Glass, Christchurch and Reginald's Tower the vision of a rejuvenated cultural and historic quarter in the Viking Triangle is beginning to take shape. At the Theatre Royal we are excited to be at the heart of this regeneration and have plans to exploit the rich architectural and historic  heritage of the oldest theatre in Ireland to fully play our part in that regeneration. However, our core activity and chief focus remains the animation of the Theatre Royal stage and after one of our busiest seasons on record we can look forward to a brimming Autumn of music, dance, drama and comedy which will offer an exciting and varied programme to our growing audience. To reflect its increased popularity and expanding business the Theatre Royal has converted its company structure from a Friendly Society to a company limited by guarantee. Under the dynamic chairmanship of Ann Marie Caulfield leading figures from business and the arts have now joined the Theatre Royal board to lend their support and experience to the executive in the continued development of our theatre as one of the designated  flagship venues in the South East.
