The Digby Theatre

The Digby Theatre

The Digby Theatre is located in Longlowong, New South Wales, Australia.

It was built in 1927 and named after local school teacher Beatrice Digby, who was the founder of the town’s major cultural event, the Longlowong Regional Eisteddfod.

In 1965, the theatre was the site of a tragic accident involving academic Dr. Theodore Fields. Although details of the event are scarce, the unusual circumstances surrounding his death have fuelled superstitions amongst the people of Longlowong.
