The Dell Open-Air Theatre
The Dell is a hidden gem in the heart of Hitchin, but it hasn’t been used regularly as an open-air theatre since 1999. Over the years, the area has become overgrown and would need a lot of work to bring it back to life. At Action Hitchin, we’re determined to restore this unique space and turn it into a working theatre once again – a place where people can enjoy live performances, outdoor events, and community gatherings.

Our Plan for The Dell
We see The Dell as more than just a stage – it’s a special spot where visitors can come together to enjoy the magic of live performances in the open air. From plays and concerts to family-friendly activities and local talent showcases, we want to make it a vibrant venue for everyone to enjoy. Restoring The Dell won’t be easy, but we believe it’s worth the effort. Imagine summer evenings filled with laughter, music, and applause, all set against the natural backdrop of this historic space.
​
This isn’t just about fixing up an old theatre – it’s about creating a space where the whole town can come together to enjoy something special. With your help, we can make The Dell a place to be proud of once again.
