Assembly Rooms, Municipal theatre in Derby, England
The Assembly Rooms features a Great Hall with arena-style auditorium that can accommodate 1,742 people, plus two bars and a coffee bar in the foyer.
Built in 1755, the original Assembly Rooms served Derby for over 200 years until a fire in 1963 led to its demolition and replacement in 1977.
The venue presents major productions throughout the year, including theatrical performances, concerts, pantomimes, and community events organized by Derby Live.
The Darwin space spans 315 square meters with flexible seating arrangements, its own foyer, and a dedicated bar for smaller gatherings and performances.
The foyer of The Darwin contains an original Jacobean ceiling that was preserved from a previous building that stood at this location.
