Background

History

The building originally opened as a Particular Baptist church in 1910. It closed in 1964 and came into the ownership of the East Riding of Yorkshire Council. For some time, it was used as a venue for local people to receive vaccinations. Between 1995 and 2007, it was home to the council's archives. In April 2013, the East Riding of Yorkshire Council approved planning for the conversion of the building into a theatre, which opened in 2014. The theatre's founder and original artistic director was Vincent Regan, who instead of using Arts Council or Heritage Lottery Fund funding, used sponsorship from local businesses. and the role later went to Richard Avery.

Architecture

The building was designed by G. F. Pennington in the "English Free" style. It is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and a slate roof. On the front is a slightly projecting stone porch containing two segmental-headed doorways with moulded reveals, and traceried panels above. Over these is a large semicircular-headed traceried window, on the roof is a wooden bellcote, and on the left is a staircase projection. It has a seating capacity of 192 with a thrust stage.
