Theatres Trust launch their 2024 At Risk Register

Join online on Tuesday 30 January as Theatres Trust unveil the 2024 Theatres at Risk Register.

The Theatres at Risk Register, now in its 18th year, highlights and supports theatre buildings under threat of closure, irreversible changes or demolition.

The event will provide a chance to find out more about the theatres on the 2024 list, explore emerging trends and hear from a range of stakeholders who are passionate about reviving the Theatre at Risk in their area.

For more info and to sign up, see their website.

Theatre History Book - A great gift

We have reprinted John Cresswell’s fascinating book The Streatham Hill Theatre: The story of a suburban theatre.

It's a great gift for someone who loves the theatre or local history, and only costs £10 including UK postage and packaging. Buy early for Christmas delivery.

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 Streatham Hill Theatre Timeline, Statement of Heritage Significance and the Viability Study Summary.
