Sleaford Little Theatre

This hidden gem at the bottom of West Street in Sleaford is often overlooked by visitors and little known even by locals. It is certainly worth a look to see what is playing on your next visit. Very accessible, free parking and excellent value for a night out. The Playhouse, erected by Joseph Smedley of Market Rasen is one of the last active Georgian Theatres in the country. It opened its doors on the 27th of March 1826. Some thirty years later, the building was converted into a school by Kirk and Parry. In the mid-to-late 20th century it was used as a Department of Social Services benefits office. In 1994, it was purchased by Sleaford Little Theatre and, after undergoing major refurbishment, reopened as a theatre in the year 2000.
