Secombe Theatre, Art Deco theatre in London Borough of Sutton, Great Britain.

The Secombe Theatre features a red brick exterior with a glass extension housing a public bar and refreshment area along Gibson Road.

Originally constructed as a Christian Science church in 1937, the building transformed into a theatre in 1983, named after Welsh entertainer Sir Harry Secombe.

The theatre's auditorium accommodated 396 patrons and presented both modern productions and classical plays until its closure in 2016.

The venue included a flat floor proscenium arch stage, multiple dressing rooms, and a separate 120-seat space called Back Door at The Secombe.

The theatre hosted the world premiere of Edward Bond's play Dea before financial difficulties led to its closure and potential conversion into residential housing.
