Close Centre Rehearsal Rooms

The Rehearsal Rooms
These rooms are situated in the Close Centre, which adjoins the Athenaeum on the first floor. They were built in 1901 and at one time were home to the Warminster County Secondary School and most recently the Youth Centre.

These light and airy rooms are open plan and are available for hire as one space. They have very large glazed windows looking onto the street. They are ideal for rehearsals, with Rehearsal Room 1 having a full wall mirror. The floor in this area is suitable for dance. It has a toilet just along the corridor and has its own access door and fire escape stairs to the Studio yard.

These rooms are not currently accessible to wheelchair users due to the historic nature of the building.

Please note we do not have any on-site car parking facilities for guests or hirers.
