Dereham Hall
The Memorial Hall is a grade II listed building. It was built as a high class carriage factory around 200 years ago, around 100 years ago it was converted into a cinema and then in the 1930s a swimming pool and dance hall as well as a cinema. At the end of World War II, it was purchased by the East Dereham Urban District Council for use as a memorial to the dead of the two world wars. It has changed little since conversion into a cinema, the main improvements being the addition of bar and kitchen in the early 1960s.
The Hall can currently seat 360 people for theatre shows which makes it a medium sized theatre larger than Norwich Playhouse, Kings Lynn Arts Centre and the Bury St Edmunds Theatre Royal. It has the advantage over these venues that the chairs can be removed and activities can take place on the flat floor making it popular as a community venue.
