Medway Little Theatre

Medway Little Theatre is situated in historic Rochester in the heart of Medway. It was converted from a disused warehouse into a 108-seat theatre in 1958. In 1995, the company acquired the freehold to its premises with the aid of a generous grant from the old Rochester City Council. It is a fully-equipped public theatre, with more than 300 productions behind it.

There is always a welcoming atmosphere in the friendly auditorium with its integral bar.
