HISTORY....

Salford Arts Theatre was originally build for The Salford Players a local group who gave opportunity to the community and aspiring actors.  Many faces were part of the group such as Sir Ben Kingsley, and many more.  The Salford Players were established in 1913 and performed out of many building in Salford until The Playhouse was built.... When the goup disolved the theatre was given back to Salford City Council who opened the space as professional theatre only the theatre then closed.  Before Roni and Scott took over the space in 2007 many had used the space for a number of purposes. The theatre is open on a regular basis.  Most recently we have been supported by Stephen Lord and Peter Hook who were both born in Salford.
