Hope Mill Theatre

Hope Mill Theatre resides in a restored Grade II cotton mill in Ancoats, offering thrilling fringe productions and community-driven creative projects. The atmospheric Engine Room café-bar (set in the old mill engine room) opens 90 minutes before performances, making it a perfect spot for pre-show drinks, conversations, and meeting fellow theatre-goers. With local workshops, an amateur dramatics community, and live musical programming, it’s a space where art, connection, and atmosphere collide. Check website link for show times.
