The Minutes and Reports can be found online at http://resources.streathamhilltheatre.org/friends, along with other supporting documents.

The AGM was followed by a regular campaign meeting.

SHT Timeline Summary published

We have just published a summary of Streatham Hill Theatre's history from its inception to the current day. It includes many of its key events, and its current status and ongoing concerns.

Though it is a summary, it links to other useful sources of background detail for those interested in the theatre's story.

It's available on our Publications web page, along with several other interesting documents! We will keep this document up to date as things change.

Don't forget, you can follow us on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook for news and features such as "On This Day".

Theatre History Book

November 2022 was the 93rd anniversary of the opening of Streatham Hill Theatre in 1929 and to celebrate we have reprinted John Cresswell’s fascinating book The Streatham Hill Theatre: The story of a suburban theatre.

This issue is a facsimile of the original book published in 2000, using some original covers left over from the original print run. The number of copies is limited by the available covers. You can buy your own copy at our online shop.

Online Publications

Note that we also have a number of publications available FREE online including our Statement of Heritage Significance and the Viability Study Summary.
