Watford Palace Theatre is an Edwardian, Grade II listed building and has been producing work for almost one hundred years.
The 2002, £8.8m Lottery Funded refurbishment has given audiences more public space, two bars, a daytime café, air cooling and new seating. The introduction of a lift to all levels, ramps and automated front doors has improved access throughout the building. The extension of the stage house has provided the theatre with superior technical facilities and production capabilities.
Over 100,000 people visit the Palace Theatre each year to enjoy the theatre’s latest production or to have lunch or a drink in Café Purple. 2008 marks the theatre’s Centenary and an opportunity to celebrate the extraordinary life of one of Britain’s best loved theatres.
