Guildhall Theatre, Historic municipal theatre in Market Place, Derby, England
The Guildhall Theatre occupies a stone building with Ionic columns and features a central portico that leads to the main performance hall.
Originally built in 1828 as Derby's Town Hall, the structure underwent reconstruction in 1842 following a fire that caused substantial damage.
The theatre space presents folk music, comedy shows, dance performances, and children's entertainment throughout the year in its intimate setting.
The venue contains two separate clubrooms used for exhibitions, workshops, and smaller performances adjacent to the main theatre space.
Underground tunnels from the 19th century connected the building to a police station for transporting prisoners to court proceedings.
