Since September 2023 Claybody Theatre has been permanently resident at Spode Works in Stoke.

'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!'

This is how you do site specific theatre,
this is how you make historic spaces work and this is how you entertain audiences
