The Grand Opera House

At first, there were two separate buildings in York; a corn exchange and an adjoining warehouse. These combined to make The Grand Opera House on 20th January 1902. The theatre puts on a varying range of musicals, plays, concerts, comedy and more. As well as this, it boasts many bars to provide patrons with drinks, in addition to being able to host weddings. Not only that, but they also periodically offer workshops for various theatre skills.
