About US We like to think that THE OLD MARKET [or TOM for short] is the best place in Brighton & Hove to see a show. Our MAIN HOUSE is a recentlyrefurbished, 300 seated, 500 standing capacity room with stunning roof beams, comfortable seating and high spec kit. Next door, TOM’S BAR and WATERLOO ROOM offer a great place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere each show brings. The Old Market is owned and managed by two of the city’s most successful artists, the creators of international smash-hit show STOMP.

Comic book action comes fizzing to life with PANIC LAB’s dynamic adventure show R.I.O.T. [13-14 OCT] - expect lots of Lycra and laughs! The laughs keep coming, with PAINES PLOUGH’s critically acclaimed, heart-wrenching and poignant EVERY BRILLIANT THING [19 & 20 OCT], a life affirming show about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love. Finally, macabre favourites KILL THE BEAST bring us another award winning tale promising hilarity, mayhem and mystery: HE HAD HAIRY HANDS [3 NOV].

TOM’s Bar is an important part of The Old Market, and we don’t like to think of it as ‘a run-of-the-mill, pricey theatre bar’. As such, our prices equal or better those of other local bars, our service is always personal, and unlike most, we promise to stay open after your show. We’re proud to serve a great range of high quality refreshments. Welcoming staff serve a range of wines, draft beers, spirits, ciders and snacks. TOM’s Bar also provides an intimate setting for smaller events, and for show previews too exclusive for the Main House next door. We look forward to seeing you at TOM’s Bar soon!
