80th Anniversary Show
17 Jan–14 Apr
Admission
Free
An exhibition to mark the 80th anniversary of the Tower Theatre Company.
The Tower Theatre Company has been entertaining audiences for 80 years, producing an astounding total of 1400 shows - Beckett to Butterworth, Shakespeare to Sondheim. We seek to tackle new theatrical territory as well as to recreate stage classics, but most of all we aim to inspire audiences with our unique combination of creativity, passion and collaboration.
Since 1932, the Tower Theatre Company has performed at over 60 different venues, from mining villages in South Wales to the west coast of the United States, via Israel, Edinburgh, Torquay, Gibraltar, Cornwall, Monte Carlo and a host of other places besides.
But the mainstay of our work has been presented at three London theatres – first the Tavistock Little Theatre in Bloomsbury (where we presented over 200 shows), then our 50 year residency at the Tower Theatre in Canonbury (just under 1000 shows played there), and more recently nearly 80 productions here at the Bridewell Theatre.
To mark the Company’s anniversary, we take you on a journey through our shows at the Bridewell – from The Fantasticks to Her Naked Skin – by presenting a selection of photographs celebrating the range and quality of our productions there.
