Dartford Borough Council and Trafalgar Theatres will be building the venue after the discovery of Raac concrete forced the closure of The Orchard Theatre.

Orchard West will be located on the Westgate site near to The Orchard Theatre and is due to open in late November.

Meanwhile, building work to replace the auditorium roof at the Orchard Theatre is due to begin this month with works expected to be completed in late 2024. "The provision of Orchard West until we can re-open our much-loved venue means that not just our amazing pantomime, but a whole range of productions from local groups right through to the big names and West End performances can continue to light up the cultural life of our town.

"Stepping in like this is not the action every Council would take but we cherish arts and culture and urge our residents to support the theatre like never before.”
