Options Explored
More discussions are taking place regarding the possible opportunities available to realise the theatre's immense potential. Heritage mantra is
for 'imaginative re-use of historical buldings'.

SAVE Britain's Theatres!
David Wilmore, a nationally respected theatre consultant looking specifically at the restoration
of historic theatres says "Hyde Theatre Royal
most certainly should be saved for its original
use as well as for many other purposes".
We believe working together with the owner
towards a multi-use future for the theatre
is the way forward!

Theatre Royal Saved!


Theatre Royal Onward are delighted that our prime objective has been achieved - that the Theatre Royal building, once threatened with demolition, has been saved. We are also delighted with the high standard of work carried out on the exterior of the theatre by the owner which means the building is now secure from decay.

Theatre Royal
To Let/May Sell

The owner has now put the building up
with Waltons Commercial sales and Lettings.

'A fantastic opportunity to let or acquire a landmark building in Hyde, Cheshire which
retains many of its original and wonderful features. The property is suitable for many
uses (subject to planning).

We dearly hope there is a buyer that shares
out vision of a multi-use future for the theatre, like so many other succesful venues you can
read about on this site. Community and
business use would attract people into the
town centre creating social and economic
capital. It would breathe new life into Hyde
Town Centre. Our Options Appraisal
confirms multi-use is feasible.
We are
happy to share this and talk with anyone interested in the immense potential of
the Theatre Royal to be a real winner.
