This small (900 seats) Edwardian theatre plays regular host to popular tour comedians, musicians and travelling productions (RSC etc.). It has an opulent interior, and it's various limitations (narrow walkways, tiny bar, limited toilets) are also a significant part of its charm. It's size means there's no seat which won't get you a good view, and the varied surrounding restaurants and bars ensure it has a popularity that belies Buxton's location.
