The Electric Theatre

More

In 1913 handsome new Electricity Works were opened on Onslow Street to provide power for Guildford town center. As demand for electricity grew the works became too small and a bigger station was built. The Electricity Works were retained however, as a distribution center and all the town center mains radiated from this point. Unfortunately after 1968 the building lay dormant, (used only as a scenery store for the various theater groups based in the area) and it was not until twenty years later that the building's potential as a theater was recognized. Located near the heart of Guildford, The Electric Theatre is a perfect location for organizing your next event or function. We have 3 meeting facilities which are available for hire where group events and functions can be organized for up to 250 people. We provide the best facilities for successful events.
