The history of the building which is now Theatr Twm o'r Nant begins in 1890, when Dr Evan Pierce built a Memorial Hall in memory of his mother and donated it to the people of Denbigh. The now-refurbished theatre stands in Station Road, just around the corner from the Evan Pierce Memorial Gardens in Vale Street, where an eight-foot-high Italian marble statue of the doctor, who died aged 87 in 1895, stands on top of a 72-foot limestone column quarried from the nearby Graig Quarry.
