Description:Small theatre built on an old Victorian swimming pool. Small, raked auditorium with ground-level open stage. The old laundry room is now the cafe bar and there is a labyrinth of voids and corridors around and underneath the pool where boilers and pumps for the pool were operated.. Bridewell Theatre is a thriving off-west end venue built over the City of London’s first swimming pool. This versatile space can also be transformed into a truly atmospheric ballroom, a cabaret venue or conference space. The Victorian glass lantern roof, viewing gallery and changing rooms remain in situ giving this historic venue a dramatic and surreal atmosphere. The tiled swimming pool itself is also still in place underneath the seating, accessible via a floor hatch.
