THEATRE ROYAL

THE APEX

The sole surviving example of a Regency playhouse in this country, with a vibrant, yearround programme of events including drama, music, comedy and family shows, the Theatre Royal is one of Britain’s most significant theatre buildings. Built in 1819, this intimate Grade I listed theatre is the only one in the National Trust property portfolio, retaining many of its original features. Presenting the most respected companies and performers, it has built a reputation of entertaining audiences with quality productions including the ever-popular annual pantomime.

Known for its acoustic excellence, The Apex is East Anglia’s principal live music venue, hosting concerts covering every music genre, from pop, rock and jazz, to country, folk and blues, as well as comedy and dance performances. It also runs a number of community and corporate events such as the town’s summer food and drink festival. A contemporary art gallery is situated on the first floor, holding a range of regularlychanging exhibitions from established and emerging artists.
