Curious Directive occupies 49 Elm Hill, a narrow medieval street in the heart of Norwich’s city centre. The theatre sits within a characterful conservation area where timber-framed buildings lean towards one another, creating the intimate atmosphere that has drawn visitors and performers to this part of Norfolk for centuries. The venue operates as a creative space focused on experimental and contemporary performance work.
Elm Hill itself is walkable from Norwich’s market square and train station, making the theatre accessible to both local audiences and tourists exploring the city’s rich cultural offerings. The postcode NR3 1HG places it firmly within Norwich’s historic core, surrounded by independent shops, galleries and cafes that reflect the city’s strong independent arts scene.
