About Granville Theatre
The Granville Theatre was originally built on the site of the Granville Pavilion, which was destroyed during the Second World War. Rebuilt and reopened in 1947, it has remained a beloved community theatre for over seven decades.
Following a recent restoration, the Granville now offers two performance spaces, a cinema screen, and refurbished bar areas - blending its post-war charm with modern comfort. Its position along Ramsgate’s seafront makes it one of the most picturesque theatres in Kent.
