Nearly 9,000 people have signed the online petition, which said an "endless list of people rely on the centre". Organiser Mike Balderson, who works at the centre, said there was "definitely a solution" to it remaining open.He said: "Despite our best efforts to rebuild following the pandemic... the venue is no longer financially viable and cannot continue to operate.
He said: "We need somebody who can step in and pick up a business that's already running, that's got shows booked in the theatre until 2025. "It doesn't need a buyer, it's not looking for loads of money. This isn't about a business that has gone into administration and is lost. This is an up and running business."Kettering comedian James Acaster was due to perform a four-night homecoming stint at the theatre in August.Its Conservative deputy leader Helen Howell said: "We are keen to ensure that arrangements are put in place so that services can be restored at the facility as quickly as possible.
