Nothing on the TV, again? Bored with staying in? Then why not see what the town of Bishop’s Stortford has to offer you? You might be surprised!
Based only 30 miles from London and with great access from the M11 motorway, Bishop’s Stortford is a great place to catch the latest films, experience local theatre and dance, or enjoy live music and comedy at some superb venues. Covering the whole entertainment spectrum from international musical superstars all the way through to comedy and the traditional pantomime, the town of Bishop’s Stortford in Hertfordshire has something for all ages and tastes.
The jewel in the crown is the Rhodes Arts Complex, which re-opened after a £3 million rebuilding and refurbishment in November 2005. Now an integral part of Bishop’s Stortford life, the original part of the main building on South Road was the birthplace of Cecil Rhodes, financier, entrepreneur and founder of the De Beers diamond company.
During the 1960’s, The Commonwealth Centre, as it was then known, was a national music venue.
