Opera house in York

“My mum and I travelled from Spain to see Gary Oldman in YTR's production of Krapp's Last Tape and we had the loveliest time. We were fortunate enough to attend three performances this week and everyone from Gisele & Gary to everybody working at YTR were the kindest every time. Since I live abroad I thought I might have difficulties to purchase tickets and pre-order merch but everyone at box office were incredibly helpful and made the process very very easy. It's an experience we'll never ever forget and I'm so thankful to YTR for making it happen. I strongly recommend visiting if you have a chance. Lovely theatre with lovely staff & crew.”

“Beautiful room, great location. Had a lovely overnight during our 2 week UK trip. We stayed in the 4 poster room - bed could have been a little more comfortable (thin mattress, no boxspring), but the room is sweet and the bathroom was nice and modernized with a spacious shower. The location is unbeatable - on a lovely quiet historic street while still being super close to the train station and great walking distance to the center. Self check in was seamless and easy. Would definitely recommend!”

“Beautiful building, and a great venue for the choir performance we saw. I imagine it would be a great wedding venue or for a party.”

“What a great night. We arrived 30 minutes before the show and it was all well organised. We were told where to go while we waited to go to our seats. From the start of the show to the end, it was so entertaining with lots of laughs and audience participation, and we couldn't stop laughing. All the cast played such great characters, and they all had great personalities, which showed during their performance. You can't take photos during the show, but you have a lot of opportunities at the end. If you do nothing else while visiting York, please go and see this show. You won't be disappointed.”

“We went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory last night. Having seen the original London show several times, we were excited to see the musical again. We were not disappointed; the sets looked great, and the singing and dancing were excellent. It was the first time we'd been to the Joseph Rowntree Theatre, but it won't be the last.”

“Absolutely love this venue. A hidden gem in York which offers theatre goers an intimate experience. The setting allows you to really feel part of what is onstage. We loved our recent visit and will be back as soon as we are able!”
