Went to the Bridge House in Penge on Monday which has a small (40 seater) theatre upstairs. Thoroughly recommend the perfomance of 'It's a wonderful life'


Still tickets for Sat and Sunday https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/event/69219


Sadly, even though I am on the mailing list, only made it to the Brockley Jack once in my life and never seen theatre at EDT or the Hob.


A zillon years ago went to the Latchmere.


Be interested in views of others.

Just to give a huge thumbs up to theatre503 in Battersea - so easy with the orange line to Clapham junction now.

Again this is not an amateur theatre, but instead an award winning theatre that is

The smallest theatre to ever win an Olivier award and had two West End transfers this year.


2015 is looking fab including the debut play from Phoebe Eclair-Powell, a local girl (some might make a link from her surname.


And the Latchmere where the theatre is based had had a makeover and a change of management - now owned by the same guys who own the Rosendale in Dulwich.

There's a great comedy show at the Comedy Museum theatre in Bloomsbury starting 3rrd February. Starring Jonathan Hansler and Clive Greenwood it's called the Afterlife of Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. I saw an early draft version of this and it's hysterical. The full length show should be a scream.

Not a pub but hey, small local theatres (with bars): the Blue Elephant in Camberwell, occasional theatre companies in residence at the Bussey building in Peckham (including some really fantastic'theatre local' by the Royal Court), the Southwark Playhouse near Elephant (brilliant) and the Ovalhouse.

Thanks for the excellent suggestions and the further recommendations for the Bridge House - despite the seats!


Went to the White Bear years ago when a friend of a friend did a production and similarly the Blue Elephant more recently.


When I lived out in the sticks we regularly used to see am dram - usually a Stoppard or similar play and it was always entertaining. With that in mind in the last century I went to West Norwood Theatre, which I understand they are always trying to save http://www.southlondontheatre.co.uk/newSLT/


Also an odd theatre under the arches at Waterloo station.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
    • I'm not talking about Starmer. I was responding to a post which  said that  Corbyn was unelectable. How people voted in the "more hotly contested election" is irrelevant. Corbyn wasn't leading the Labour Party then. Starmer was. And the turnout for Labour reflects that. 
    • Reeves says she's in charge and no no's Rayners plan, what happens now?
