Welcome to The Vic
The Vic is a venue for all – and for all activities. Our vision is to make theatre, dance, the visual arts, and music more easily accessible to a much wider audience.
Since 1987, Drip Action Theatre has entertained audiences at The Vic with surprising, sometimes challenging, plays.
The Boathouse Ballet School welcomes boys and girls from 2½ to 12 for Saturday classes. Akin, Arundel’s Creative Collective network of commercial creatives meets monthly at The Vic.
You can hire our three multi-function rooms for classes, events, exhibitions, or parties. Have you seen the bars in The Red Room and The Green Room? They are party-perfect!
To protect The Vic and to create a community hub for arts and creativity, we never stop planning and fundraising. Our vision is to preserve and improve this historic building to develop what we can offer to future generations.
This year, we transformed The Red Room, at the back of the building into a modern multi-purpose space for theatre, music, community, private events – and a pop-up cinema.
Next up? Our outside spaces. And a vision to offer affordable spaces for people to hire for educational activities. The Vic was created for our community. That fuels our fundraising passion today.
We want to run summer schools for children and organise half-term/holiday events to introduce young people to theatre, dance, and music.
We want to tackle disability and learning difficulties in our community to welcome those who can feel excluded to enjoy creative and artistic activities.
Above all we want to support all Arundel creatives. The Vic is your space to network, organise meetings, present projects – or to host events and party.
We are always on the lookout for volunteers and for partners who might help us in our quest for these ambitions – please get in touch if you would like to help.

Hire a Room
You can hire our three flexible spaces, The Green Room, The Red Room and The Studio to meet, create, share, learn, or celebrate with family and friends. The Red Room and the Green Room even have bars. You will have to stock them though (sorry!). Get in touch to find out more about our (very!) reasonable room hire rates.
Please get in touch if you would like us to show you around our rooms for hire.
The Red Room is currently being renovated. With your help, we can create a modern theatre, community hall, private event space and pop-up cinema for all ages to enjoy. Visit our Support The Vic page.
‘Flexible’ is the Green Room’s middle name. It can be an art gallery, yoga studio, or ballet school. Fitness classes, creative workshops, book groups, networking events; they all enjoy this space when they want to meet, create, share, learn, enjoy.
The Studio is being renovated. We'll be honest; it's a shell. It's a hugely popular shell though, especially with artists and creatives who want a richly, textured backdrop. What will you create and share in The Studio?
