Formerly George Square Theatre, renamed in 2019 to honour campaigner and University of Edinburgh alumnus Gordon Aikman, this is Assembly’s third-largest venue and a purpose-built theatre which can host a range of genres.
It has 500 seats including freestanding chairs in the first three rows, with the rest being fixed seating. As this is a purpose-built theatre it has dressing rooms and warm-up spaces.
Recent shows in this venue include David O’Doherty, Murder She Didn’t Write, Frank Skinner, Nish Kumar, Phil Wang and Mythos: Ragnarok.
