The Tower Theatre, Islington:
The Tower Theatre Company are unique in being the only full-time non-professional company in Central London that since its formation in 1953, has always played in public theatres. The Tower Theatre Company stages up to 18 productions a year and all their actors, directors and technical crew get involved for the love of it, working together to produce shows that compete with the best of the professional London fringe. In 2003, they lost their home in Islington and have been seeking a new base since then.
We have supported this search with feasibility studies and schemes for several sites and have now prepared a detailed Planning Application for the conversion of the Grade II Listed Old Hornsey Road Baths into a 150 seat auditorium with studio theatre, rehearsal spaces, club room and backstage facilities.
