Angles Theatre, Georgian theatre in Wisbech, England
The Angles Theatre building combines an original theatre structure from 1790 with a former library that was initially an infant school constructed in 1837.
The theatre operated as part of the Lincoln theatre circuit until 1850, when the venue transformed into a concert room for several subsequent years.
William Henry West Betty and the celebrated duo of Amelia Holman Gilfert and Joseph George Holman delivered notable performances at the theatre during the early 1800s.
The theatre contains 112 seats and provides a bar service with refreshments during performances, while maintaining full accessibility for visitors with physical disabilities.
Madame Tussaud presented her traveling waxwork exhibition at this location in 1825, accompanied by a military band with admission priced at one shilling.
