Marlowe Theatre
Canterbury's main theatre, named after Christopher Marlowe, who was born in the city. It stages touring musicals, plays, ballet, opera, comedy and the annual pantomime, so it is the busiest stop for visiting West End tours in east Kent. Check the venue's own website for current listings, prices and how to book.
