We meet in the Harlequin Theatre bar (usually) every Friday at 8:30.

The Harlequin Theatre is in Queen Street in Northwich.

Find Northwich in your Road Atlas - it's in the middle of Cheshire.  Look for the A556 which goes East-West from the M6 (junct 19) towards Chester.  Where it swings south of Northwich, it meets the A533 just north of the village of Davenham.  Turn northwards here and follow the signs.  About two miles later, you'll come under a railway viaduct arch.  There are two turns immediately on the left - take the second one.  After 50 yards, there is a right angle bend to the right.  This is now Queen St and the theatre is half way along on the left.

When the theatre company have a production on (six times a year), we move to our second home, the Davenham Players Theatre.

To find Davenham Players, turn south at the A556/A533 junction into Davenham village, turn left into Church St by the shops.  The Players Theatre is about 300 yards on the left.

The Harlequin Theatre has a bar area on the first floor which is where the folk club usually meet.  However, for some nights we hire the theatre proper which allows us to seat 96 people.
Disabled Access: The theatre has level access at ground floor level including toilets.  The bar is up a single flight of stairs.  At Davenham, there is a ground level entrance with a small step.  If unsure, please ask us.

The Harlequin Theatre company put on six plays every year and while these are running, the folk club re-locates to another local venue, often the Davenham Players Theatre.  Check the "Forthcoming Events" list to be sure of the correct venue.

Occasionally, when neither theatre is available, we might relocate elsewhere.  Recently we have added the RAOB Club, 52-54 Witton St. Northwich CW9 5AG to our list of venues.  This offers a spacious upstairs room (with stair lift) in a building featuring traditional Northwich black & white markings.  Witton St. is the main pedestrian shopping street and you'll find parking near to the police station.

This is another of those small soft-seaters that I like so much. The stage is at ground level, and the seats rake upward fairly steeply, so everybody is above you. There's also some standing room at ground level on either side of the banked seating. Above the seats through a set of doors there's a cafe. It only holds about 120 people, but it is so warm, intimate and friendly (and full!), it felt like a thousand.

-  Ok, so it only actually holds 96, but it is a great place to play, and when it's full, it buzzes!!!
