About Us

The Priory Theatre has been a feature of the Warwickshire town of Kenilworth for over 70 years. We can trace our roots back to 1932 when, as the Kenilworth Players, our founding members performed The Rising Generation by Wyn Weaver and Laura Leycester. We have been in our present location, in a converted 19th Century Chapel, since the 1940s and are run by our members for the benefit of the local community.

In this section, you can find out where we are, a bit about our history, along with aspects of our theatre that may be of interest. If you can't find the answer to the questions about the Theatre that you're looking for, then please don't hesitate to Contact Us!
