About Stephen Joseph Theatre

The Stephen Joseph Theatre is a Scarborough theatre with a national reputation: Alan Ayckbourn has premiered most of his plays here. It sits in a town that is open about being a resort — Sandside and Foreshore Road are amusement arcades, doughnut stalls and gulls bold enough to take food from your hand, and in August the seafront is loud from ten in the morning. The theatre is one of the reasons people come for more than the sands, alongside the Rotunda geology museum, built in 1829, and Anne Brontë's grave in St Mary's churchyard on the castle road. Among hotels near Stephen Joseph Theatre, the cluster in central Scarborough puts you within a few minutes of the door, which matters on a performance evening when the town is busy. Both versions of Scarborough are real, and a theatre trip lets you take in the arcades and the auditorium in the same day.

Tips for staying near Stephen Joseph Theatre

  • Check what is on at the theatre before fixing your dates: premieres and summer season draw the crowds, and central rooms a minute from the door go first.
  • In August the seafront is loud from ten in the morning, so light sleepers may prefer a room set back from Sandside and Foreshore Road.
  • If you arrive by train, the walk down from Scarborough station on Westborough takes about 5 minutes to the seafront, so a central hotel keeps luggage carrying short.
  • Add the Rotunda geology museum and Anne Brontë's grave in St Mary's churchyard on Castle Road to a theatre day; both are in town and easy to pair with an evening performance.
