    I love this place. There is always something provocative and challenging about the productions they stage. Still the most exciting theatre in London.

    A go to venue for new writing. The place to look for upcoming as well as established talent. Easy to find, next door to the tube!

    'Teh Internet is a Serious Business' by Tim Price - An interesting look into the bizarre and powerful nature of the internet. Great set design encapsulating this virtual world on stage.

    Impressive building. The bar downstairs is really cool and after the plays you can drink one with the actors sometimes.

    I love that there are still sizeable theatres out there with a political bent. Seen some great things here recently but Who Cares was the best - challenging and moving

    The present theatre was opened in 1888, and since 1956 has been home to the subsidised English Stage Company. That year it staged ‘Look Back in Anger’, regarded as the birth of modern English drama.

    Balcony seats are perfect as the venue is tiny and intimate.

    Amazing old theater. Their bar will be closed for the rest of August but it's a good bar for a quick beer.

    Read the warning when you buy your ticket... No leg room literally means that, especially on the balcony...
