The Victoria Theatre- Jubilee Celebration guide was launched in early January 2023
The internationally renowned Victoria Theatre celebrated its Diamond Jubilee in October 2022. Staffordshire University Special Collections is proud to be the current home of the Victoria Theatre Archive. This is an unrivalled collection of posters, photos, programmes and other resources charting the early history of the theatre.
Created in 2022, the Theatre's Diamond Jubilee year, this online collection of artefacts aims to give a glimpse of the wide variety of materials and resources contained in the Archive. In doing so it attempts to highlight some of the aspects of drama and theatre for which the Vic, and now the New Vic, is famous.
An exhibition of some of the key items in the collection will be available later in February 2023 - look out for more details!
You can visit the Archive which is based in Special Collections, Blackstone Building by arrangement. Please contact academicskills@staffs.ac.uk
Happy Diamond Jubilee Victoria Theatre!
