Theatre Royal Stratford East
A People’s Theatre
This famous producing theatre, located in the heart of London’s East End on the edge of the new Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, prides itself in reflecting the concerns, hopes and dreams of the people of its community.
Theatre Royal Stratford East both inspires and is inspired by its vibrant, young and diverse community in a continuous loop that draws from and engages with audiences like no other UK theatre. Theatre Royal Stratford East has always been passionate about developing new talent encouraging writers, performers, directors and other artists to break the mould of contemporary theatre.
This tradition goes back to the 1950s when Joan Littlewood championed working class people, providing a stage for their stories and voices through ground-breaking new work. We believe that diversity in all its forms holds the key to excellent work. National and international awards are recognition for the value of this belief.
