The Old Nick Theatre is a unique arts and culture venue in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire.
Housed in the old police station and courtrooms, the venue was adapted to provide a home for Gainsborough Theatre Company, an award winning amateur dramatics theatre company.
The original courtroom has been transformed into a theatre in the round and the police station restored back to its former state complete with cells and exercise yards.
It is a very special venue, indeed.
Coming Next…

The Village of Much Munching are getting ready for their Christmas play.
After last years disaster, reciting lines from a different play, cavorting around topless polishing cutlery in massive pants, stomping all over the place declaiming everything, cramming in ‘hilarious’ jokes whenever possible, some of them trying to be taken seriously and the rest of them just there for a fun day out, the Much Munching Village Hall is in danger of losing it’s lease thanks to dastardly property developer Malcolm… unless they can pull off a success….
……so this year Hall Manager Cynthia has pulled out the big guns…
Brand new professional director Brandon De Witt has been hired to turn this bunch of amateur theatre players into a passable group of amazing performers to save the village hall
