The exterior of the Dukes

The Dukes in Lancaster, England, formerly known as the Duke's Playhouse, is a professional producing theatre, currently producing six theatre productions a year. It also hosts outside companies and arts festivals. It has two auditoria, the larger (named "The Rake") seating approximately 313 and a newly refurbished studio theatre "The Round" seating approximately 240. The larger auditorium is also used for screening films, and the theatre has a reputation for independent cinema. Since 1986 the Dukes has also produced annual open-air, walkabout theatre productions at Williamson Park in the city every summer, thought to be the largest outdoor theatre event of its kind in the UK.^{[citation needed]}

The theatre is housed in a converted church (formerly St Anne's Church), opening as a theatre in 1971.
