The South London Theatre is a community theatre in West Norwood in the London Borough of Lambeth, England. It is the largest theatre in South London and is a member of the Little Theatre Guild of Great Britain.

History[edit | edit source]

The South London Theatre was established in 1967 by a group of amateur dramatic enthusiasts. The theatre is housed in a converted fire station, which was built in 1881 and is a Grade II listed building. The building was converted into a theatre in 1977 and has been the home of the South London Theatre ever since.

Productions[edit | edit source]

The South London Theatre stages more than 20 productions a year, ranging from classic plays to modern dramas, comedies, and musicals. The theatre also hosts a number of special events, including play readings, workshops, and social events. The theatre's productions are performed by a mix of professional and amateur actors, and the theatre is always looking for new members to join its ranks.
