Alley Theatre, Performance venue in Strabane, Northern Ireland.
Description
The Alley Theatre is a performance venue in Strabane that combines an auditorium, art gallery, and tourist information centre in one modern building. Located on Railway Street, it serves as a multipurpose cultural space for the community.
History
The building opened in 2007 on a site that previously served as a market and gathering place in the 18th and 19th centuries. This conversion transformed an active commercial area into a cultural venue for the region.
Culture
The venue hosts regular theatrical performances and art exhibitions that draw performers and visitors from across the region. These events bring together the local creative community and give emerging artists opportunities to show their work.
Practical
The venue is fully accessible for visitors with mobility needs, allowing easy entry to the auditorium and all public areas. A box office on-site helps with advance bookings and current event information.
Did you know?
An eight-foot bronze pig statue called 'Where Dreams Go' stands outside the building, decorated with Celtic spiral patterns. The sculpture references the cattle market that once occupied this spot.
