Ilkley Playhouse, Community theatre in Ilkley, England
Ilkley Playhouse is a theatre building in Ilkley with two distinct performance spaces serving different types of shows. The Wharfeside Theatre features traditional fixed seating, while the Wildman Studio offers flexible staging that adapts to different performance needs.
The theatre received a commemorative plaque from Ilkley Civic Society, with the well-known actor Timothy West presiding over its unveiling. This marked formal recognition of its importance to the local community.
The venue serves as a gathering place for theatre lovers in the area, where local performers and artists showcase their work. The annual productions bring the community together and reflect what matters to local audiences.
The venue is operated by Ilkley Players Ltd, a charitable organization focused on theatrical productions. The building is accessible to visitors and provides a good place to watch performances of various kinds.
During the 2020 pandemic, Arts Council England provided the theatre with a substantial grant of £60,454 to maintain its operations and community services.
