If you would like to hire the studios, please read all the relevant booking documents in our downloads section. You can complete and return the studio hire form to us via email hires@thealbany.org.uk post or fax. Please don’t forget to sign and date the form.

We then see whether we can accommodate your hire. We host two kinds of event in the theatre: programmed events (which we instigate) and hired events (which come as external requests – like yours). We arrange the programmed events before the season starts and attempt to fit hired events around these. If we can accommodate your booking, we will get back to you with an initial quote.

We will then organise a production meeting, where you will have the opportunity to talk through the finer points of your hire with our technical team. Following this we will be able to provide you with a final quote.

Finally, once you have approved this final quote, then we will issue you with a contract.

To view/print out the booking form, technical specifications and prices, please see our downloads section.
