Stratford Town Trust is disappointed to have received notice from the operator of the Play House, The  Stratford Play House Limited, that it is terminating its agreement early and, as a result, the venue will have to close temporarily on 31st January 2025.

We want to reassure the public that Stratford Town Trust are committed to this much-loved Stratford venue remaining a community space and we will be exploring all options beginning in the New Year. 

Since receiving the news from The Stratford Play House Limited, we have spent some time in discussions with them in an effort to find a way for the venue to remain open. Despite our best endeavours, regrettably none of the options offered by the operator were realistic.

Anyone with a ticket for a performance or event after 31st January will be contacted directly by The Stratford Play House Limited regarding their refund.
