THE DIPPING HOUSE 

 THE DIPPING HOUSE A new arts and community venue for Claybody and Stoke-on-Trent 

Claybody Theatre is now permanently resident at Spode Works in Stoke - in a former dipping house.  
 
We began with our 2023 production SONG OF THE SYTCH in this wonderful industrial space, and most recently audiences packed the house for BRIGHT LIGHTS OVER BENTILEE. 
 
In February 2024 we were delighted to be joined by our Patron for AN AUDIENCE WITH TOBY JONES - sponsored by KMF.  
 
'This amazing space… which really is one of the most beautiful theatrical spaces I’ve seen in years.  
It’s so wonderful… how it’s haunted by its past – it’s great!' 
TOBY JONES 
This is how you do site specific theatre,  
this is how you make historic spaces work and this is how you entertain audiences
