About

This beautiful Edwardian theatre nestles between Windsor Castle and the River Thames and is the only unsubsidised producing theatre to operate all year round in Britain.  

Our repertoire is wide, ranging from the classics and traditional pantomimes to first productions of new work.  

This intimate theatre boasted the late Bill Kenwright as its producer and audiences are treated to new productions before they transfer to the West End or go off on tour around the country. 

Theatre Royal Windsor has gained a reputation for the quality of its productions and is currently one of Britain's leading theatres. Its traditional pantomime is considered one of the best in the country.

For more information on our upcoming productions, ticket prices and special group rates, please call our Box Office on 01753 853888 or visit our website www.theatreroyalwindsor.co.uk

    Map & Directions

    Road Directions

    Theatre Royal Windsor is 25 miles west of central London and just 15 minutes aware from Heathrow Airport.   The town is easily accessible via the M3, M4, M25 and M40. 

    There are many public car parks within a few minutes walk of the theatre, many of which are council run and use RingGo for ease of payment.  There are also a selection of privately managed car parks close to the theatre. 

    The town can become very busy at weekends and we recommend you allow plenty of time to find parking if you are coming for a Saturday matinee performance, especially in the run up to Christmas.

    Public Transport Directions

    There are two main railway stations in Windsor, both within a short walk of the theatre.

    Windsor & Eton Riverside station has regular trains to London Waterloo via Staines, Richmond and Clapham Junction.

    Windsor & Eton Central station has regular trains to Slough where you can change for London Paddington, Maidenhead and Reading & the Elizabeth Line
