A Groundbreaking Theater
If you've seen the big West End shows and you’re looking for something a bit more intimate, nothing beats this classy venue in sophisticated Islington. Small in size, the Almeida still packs a huge punch, constantly winning awards for its groundbreaking contributions to British theater. With star billing like Andrew Scott as Hamlet and Matt Smith in
American Psycho, and vital new writing like Lucy Kirkwood’s
Chimerica or Mike Bartlett’s
King Charles III, this place is always a hot ticket — and a crammed calendar of talks, masterclasses, and workshops makes it a theatrical mecca even before the house lights go down.
