Connaught Theatre, Theatre and movie theater in Worthing, England.
The Connaught Theatre is a cinema and live performance venue in Worthing, a seaside town on the south coast of England. The auditorium seats around 500 people and hosts both film screenings and stage productions throughout the year.
The building opened in 1935 and was designed from the start to host both film and stage productions. It has gone through several refurbishments over the decades while keeping its original layout and character.
The Connaught Theatre is one of the few venues on the south coast of England that regularly combines film screenings and live stage shows in the same building. Locals treat it as a regular part of town life, returning for both classic film nights and touring productions.
The theatre is in central Worthing, within walking distance of the railway station, which makes it easy to reach on foot if you arrive by train. Parking is available nearby for those coming by car.
The stage at the Connaught is notably small for a venue of this type, which means the audience sits very close to the performers. This closeness gives even small productions a strong presence that a larger house would not offer.
