Audience Choice Award: Best Venue winners 2023!
This is now our third Brighton Fringe season.
Our 60 seater theatre sits above a historic inclusive LGBTQ+ friendly pub, and as such, we ask you to read through our code of conduct (on page 15 of the programme) in case you haven’t been here before to make sure your experience with us is the best it can be. Please download the PUBBL app for exclusive drinks offers in the bar, and check out the food menu from The Caribbean Kitchen.
Tickets for shows can be purchased ‘on the door’ on the day only, but we advise booking tickets in advance from the Brighton Fringe box office (see QR code or click HERE for full listings on the Brighton Fringe site, including full content warning details, and to purchase tickets.)
Our theatre is up a flight of stairs, with bannisters on either side. If you need assistance or extra time to enter or exit the venue, please do let a member of the front of house team know.
Unfortunately, our licence doesn’t allow under 18s in the venue after 7pm, so this may be the reason shows starting after this time display the age restriction rather than show content.
