About us

CELEBRATING 25 YEARS! a message from our chairman.

It gives me great pleasure, on behalf of all the volunteers who created and maintain Barnsley’s Lamproom Theatre, to welcome you to our 25th Anniversary year.

The Lamproom Theatre has, for a quarter of a century, provided our community with a wonderful example of volunteering spirit and endeavour. Everyone, including the Board of Trustees, Friends of the Lamproom, none-technical stage crews, directors and actors, give freely of their time and talent to provide our town with one of the most successful community theatres in the country.
