The Grand Opera House, York - The buildings that comprise the Grand Opera House York were not originally intended to be a theatre. The tall section was York’s Corn Exchange in 1868 and it was planned to use it as a concert hall from time to time. The auditorium was a warehouse opening onto Kings Street. In 1902 after the Corn Exchange failed, it was converted into the Grand Opera House by William Peacock. The theatre opened on January 20th 1902 with Little Red Riding Hood starring Florrie Ford.
