WHAT’S ON GUIDE Spring / Summer 2026
As ever, there’s something to whet everyone’s appetite at The People’s Theatre and we look forward to welcoming patrons old and new to the jewel in Barnsley’s cultural crown.
DownloadTHE PEOPLE’S THEATRE at the heart of the community.
The building opened in 1794 as a Methodist chapel, until it was purchased by the National Association of Boys’ Clubs in 1948. In 1998, the building was purchased for use as a theatre by Barnsley Theatre Trust. Under the leadership and enthusiasm of John Kelly and over 100 patrons, subscribers and volunteers ‘The People’s Theatre’ launched in 1999 as The Lamproom Theatre.
