Things to do near Keswick

Theatre by the Lake

1.6 miles from Low Briery · nearest town Keswick

Theatre by the Lake sits on the shore of Derwentwater, a short walk from Keswick town centre. It’s a professional producing theatre with two performance spaces, a Main House and a smaller Studio, and it stages its own productions alongside visiting shows.

The programme includes drama, family shows and other events through the year, and the building also hosts exhibitions. There’s food and drink on site, so you can make an evening of it with a meal or a drink before the show. It’s well worth checking what’s on during your stay.
