Chesterfield's popular Pomegranate Theatre started life in 1879 as the Stephenson Memorial Hall as a tribute to George Stephenson (the inventor of the
steam train).

It also spent a part of its life as a cinema and as the Chesterfield Civic Theatre before becoming the Pomegranate in 1982.

These days, the theatre hosts a diverse range of theatrical and musical productions - but one of its claims to fame came in March 1958 when, as a young Assistant Stage Manager, Diana Rigg made her stage debut in The Passing of the Third Floor Back by Jerome K Jerome.
