Strode Theatre, Theatre in Street, England
Strode Theatre is a performance venue in Street with two separate spaces for shows. The main auditorium seats 343 people while the studio space holds 64 visitors with flexible seating arrangements.
The theatre was founded in 1963 with support from the Clarks Foundation, becoming part of Street's cultural growth. This backing from a significant local organisation shaped it as a community-focused venue from the start.
