The Bear Pit Theatre is a voluntary non-profit, registered charity (no. 1156259) and member of the Little Theatre Guild. Founded in 2008, the theatre occupies a converted church hall on Rother Street in the heart of historic Stratford-upon-Avon and offers an intimate 110-seat raked auditorium. It stages its own in-house theatre company productions, hosts visiting companies, runs a community cinema and National Theatre Live screenings, and presents a family Christmas production each year (recent shows include The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Railway Children, James and the Giant Peach and The Twits).
