At the Auden, they are passionate about live performance.
Throughout the year you can see a wide variety of events from professional touring theatre, dance, and opera to their own School productions (The Auden is situated on the Gresham’s School site in Holt), with world class classical music, contemporary music, big bands and jazz.
As well as being the main venue for the annual Holt Festival, they play host to local amateur and semi-professional companies such as the North Norfolk Chamber Opera and Triple Threat Stage School. Performers and companies are supported by their professional technicians, front of house team and box office staff with their online ticketing system and website.
The recently upgraded auditorium seating can comfortably seat audiences of over 300. Visitors to the Auden can relax pre-show and during the interval with a drink from the foyer bar, or on a summer’s evening sit on the Auden’s terrace overlooking the beautiful grounds and woodlands.
There is ample parking nearby with accessible spaces in a designated car park close to the Theatre.
Having this fabulous performance space on the Gresham’s campus gives the School’s drama and music students the opportunity to showcase their talents to their families and the local community in the annual School productions and, along with their studies this has provided a launch pad for a number of professional actors, directors and singers.
