Barnsley’s Lamproom Theatre at the heart of our community
Behind the doors of our historic Grade II* listed building, a remarkable blend of people make theatre happen. Performers, volunteers and visiting professionals bring their talents, energy and ingenuity; our audiences bring the encouragement, laughter and loyalty. Together, they make the Lamproom a place where ideas take flight and a shared love of live entertainment becomes something extraordinary.
From gripping drama, to glorious comedy, live music, family favourites and spectacular musical theatre – alongside familiar faces and returning favourites – there are always fresh voices to discover and new stories to enjoy… all brought to life with resourcefulness, imagination and care that are at the heart of our theatre.
For over 25 years, the Lamproom has nurtured local talent and worked to keep theatre accessible to our community. That generous, enterprising spirit continues to shape everything we do, creating opportunities both onstage and behind the scenes, and giving Barnsley (and beyond) plenty to be proud of.
Whether you know us well – or are stepping through our doors for the first time – YOU are part of the story. So, come along, take your seat and be part of our rich and diverse history.
