The List

Byre Theatre

With a 216 seat auditorium, a 100 seat studio theatre and full cinematic, theatrical and conference facilities, the Byre Theatre is a strong cultural hub in North East Fife. Originally founded in 1933, the building has seen many changes over the years, and in 2013 it went into administration and ceased hosting performances. In 2014, The University of St Andrews announced that the theatre was to reopen under the management of the University, with the building to be used as a theatre, educational resource, general arts venue and music centre. There’s a new Café Bar downstairs at the Byre, thanks to a partnership with our friends at St Andrews Brewing Company: Monday – Saturday 10.00am – 5.00pm, Sunday 11.00am – 5.00pm, except when there is an evening show, when it closes after the interval.
