Gala Theatre

Gala Theatre (also branded Gala Durham) is a live performance venue in Durham, England. Its official website lists a programme of touring theatre, dance, comedy, and music, including appearances by Ballet Black, Lemn Sissay, The Comedy Store, Go West's Peter Cox, and Ivo Graham. The venue operates as a receiving house for touring productions and one-off concerts rather than as a producing company. The name 'Gala Theatre' is also associated with a former cinema in Mongkok, Hong Kong, but the active commercial entity evidenced by the official website is the Durham venue. No ownership, founding date, or corporate parent is confirmed by the supplied evidence.

The supplied evidence does not provide a founding date or detailed history for the Durham Gala Theatre. Its official website presents a current programme of touring theatre, dance, comedy, and music, indicating an active venue. A separate Wikidata entry describes a former cinema in Mongkok, Hong Kong, China, under the same name; that entity is distinct from the Durham venue and is not the subject of this active commercial dossier.
