 Email us for information about the theatre and for details about how to book the venue for an event.
The theatre can be hired for drama, music and other events. The theatre is perfect for small scale drama productions, small touring shows, performance events and conference events.
The theatre has a very good acoustic for both amplified and non-amplified music. It is wonderful for string quartets, small chamber orchestras, folk performances and even full rock bands. The theatre has also been used to stage Handel operas.
The Unicorn is a small space with an Elizabethan style thrust stage, with stage balcony, innerstage, arched entrances and, if required, pillars and stage front balustrade. It seats 89 people.
The Elizabethan façade can be hidden by blacks and box sets built in front of it. There are no tabs and there is very limited backstage space. Three dressing room spaces are provided and other spaces can be made available if required.
 Audience areas include two large 'checkers' and a beautiful long gallery. Refreshments can be served in any of these spaces. The long gallery has a sink, storage and a fridge, if required.
For more information about the theatre please email us.
If you are not part of UTUG (Unicorn Theatre Users Group) you must arrange to either hire the technician to help you setup and operate lights and sound for your event, or organize a meeting with the technician, who can talk you through how to operate the technical equipment and explain the rules and regulations you must follow when using the venue.
 Please get in touch if you have any questions. Email.
Plans of the theatre + full lists of available lighting and sound equipment are available on request.
The Unicorn Theatre, as part of the Abingdon Abbey Buildings, is owned and run by The Friends of Abingdon. |
