Hotel near The Crucible Theatre
The Crucible Theatre is Sheffield’s landmark with a reputation for unforgettable events and productions. Located on Norfolk Street, just a 5 minutes walk from our hotel, it hosts anything from big production, musicals, local performers and upcoming plays. However, it may be best known for hosting professional snooker’s most prestigious tournament, the World Snooker Championship, an event held since 1977.
Built by M J Gleeson and opened in 1971, the Crucible Theatre is renowned for its versatility. Its opening performances ranged from music hall to improvised children’s scenes to musical performances.
After winning the Barclays ‘Theatre of the Year Award’ in 2001, the theatre underwent refurbishments between 2007 and late 2009. The stage is surrounded by seats on all sides, creating an intimate atmosphere for the audience. With a seating capacity of 980, it is currently owned by Sheffield Theatre and managed by talented directors who design and rehearse productions in-house.
Whether you’re immersing yourself in compelling drama or witnessing the excitement of the World Snooker Championship, the Crucible Theatre offers an unparalleled experience. For snooker enthusiasts, it’s the event of the year, and for theatre lovers, it’s a must-visit destination.
