THE VENUES

Robinson College
On Grange Road (which runs parallel to the Backs) a short walk from the City Centre. The performance will take place in their beautiful, purpose-built amphitheatre and there is ample parking in Adams Road (the College carpark is halfway down on the left, or there is parking on the road itself). The entrance to the garden is also on Adams Road.

Girton College
The College is situated at the end of Huntingdon Road, about a mile and a half outside the City Centre. There is plenty of parking within the College or the College can be reached by a short taxi ride. Alternatively, there is a regular bus service to outside Girton College from the Drummer Street Bus Station in the centre of Cambridge. If you are driving or walking, then go along Huntingdon Road (A1307) until you reach the Q8 garage on the right –hand side. Girton Road is the next right turn and the car park and entrance are about a hundred yards down Girton Road on the left.

Trinity College
We are fortunate to have been granted permission to perform in the Fellows' Garden at Trinity College – a part of the College not even normally available to ordinary members of Trinity! The only available entrance for the production is on Queen's Road (‘The Backs') and is actually on the opposite side of the road to the main College buildings. The venue is easily accessible on foot from the centre of Cambridge (though not through the College itself at that time of night!) and parking is available on Queens Road and nearby West Road.

Downing College
Downing is situated on Regent Street, right in the heart of Cambridge. The entrance is opposite the front of the University Arms Hotel and the entrance to Parker's Piece. Parking is available on Regent Street and also Parkside Terrace.

King's College
We are fortunate to have been granted permission to perform in the Fellows' Garden at King's College – a part of the College not even normally available to ordinary members of King's! The only available entrance for the production is on Queen's Road (‘The Backs') and is actually on the opposite side of the road to the main College buildings, on the corner of Queen's Road and West Road. The venue is easily accessible on foot from the centre of Cambridge (though not through the College itself at that time of night!) and parking is available on Queens Road and West Road.

St John's College
We are fortunate to have been granted permission to perform in the Scholar's Garden at St John's College – just inside the Queen's Road entrance. The only available entrance for the production is on Queen's Road. The venue is easily accessible on foot from the centre of Cambridge (though not through the College itself at that time of night!) and parking is available on Queens Road and nearby West Road.

Fitzwilliam College
The College is situated on Huntingdon Road, just past the top of Castle Hill and is a short walk from Bridge Street and Magdalene Bridge. Parking is available in front of the College and on Huntingdon Road and the roads in that area. There is a regular bus service from the centre of town to Huntingdon Road.
