Coronavirus: Suspended performances at the Orchard Theatre
Updated: 11 October 2021, 3.38pm
Events at the Orchard Theatre that were scheduled to take place before and including Monday 30 August 2021 have been suspended.
Some shows beyond this date may also be subject to suspension or rescheduling.
The Orchard Theatre building and box office are temporarily closed.
Welcoming you back
We’re ready to welcome you back when restrictions are lifted and are aiming to open again with events at full capacity from 31 August 2021. Read more
Advice For Ticket Holders
We are working to reschedule as many of the affected performances as we can. Inevitably this will not be possible for all events - and some shows will not be rescheduled.
This event list will be updated regularly.
These procedures apply for all bookings made direct with the venue. If you booked through a third party agency (Ticketmaster, See Tickets etc.) please contact them directly.

- Rescheduled (majority of events) - What should I do?
