About Prescot

Known for

The Shakespeare North Playhouse (a new Elizabethan theatre inspired by the Globe, opened 2022), the clock-making heritage, and a Merseyside town that was Shakespeare's northern home

A little history

Prescot has extraordinary connections to Elizabethan theatre — the town had a playhouse in Shakespeare's time and was an important stop on the route from London to the north. The new Shakespeare North Playhouse, opened in 2022, is built in the spirit of the original with a thrust stage and galleries.

Local tip

The Shakespeare North Playhouse is genuinely excellent — world-class Elizabethan-style theatre. The town centre for the historic heritage. The Knowsley area for wider attractions.
