Our theatre is an excellent amenity that we are very privileged to have and would be the envy of any town or city in Ireland.
The Palace Theatre Facilities also include three dressing rooms which are available to be used for all productions taking place in the Theatre.
Dressing room one is located stage right and is accessible from both the stage and the auditorium.
Dressing Room two and three are located upstairs and stage left. Both dressing rooms are accessible via an external stairway so movement from stage to dressing room is seamless.
The theatre has been host to many a musical thanks to the Fermoy Musical Society which was founded in 1924 with their first performance of Gilbert and Sullivan’s ‘Trial by Jury’.
