A local theatre in Knaresborough, home of the Knaresborough Players.

Frazer Theatre Music brings a range of music gigs to the Frazer ranging from popular artists such as Kiki Dee, Beverley Craven and Martin Turner of Wishbone Ash, to nostalgia bands covering music from the 50s, 60s and 70s and also local up and coming acts such as Holly Rose Webber and Two Tone Rust.

The Knaresborough Players are a limited company, while retaining their full charitable status, and have around 50 members. All activities are carried out by volunteers.

The upkeep of the theatre is funded through theatre activities and major future developments include improvements to the roof and the upgrading of the land around the theatre.

The comedian Ken Dodd said, ‘Every town needs a theatre. It’s the hub of a town’s life. It reflects the character of the people who live there.’ Every town should have a theatre, but many don’t.

If Ken Dodd is right, then Knaresborough is a very lucky place.
