What’s on at the Bridge Theatre

We love watching audiences queuing excitedly on Potters Fields Park outside the Bridge Theatre.    Since it opened in 2017, we’ve enjoyed a fantastic range of new plays, Shakespearean classics and star performances (not to mention great coffee, wines and baked treats from St. John).

But we’re very excited about the return of a huge favourite from a few years ago.   ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’  is back for a limited summer run until the end of August, so if you missed it the first time, it’s a must-see this summer.   Our gardening team is certainly looking forward to picking up a few fairy crowns from the lawns every morning!

There are more treats to come later in the year, with the news that Alicia Vikander and Andrew Lincoln will be starring in ‘The Lady From The Sea’, a thrilling dissection of desire, loss and rebirth for the contemporary age.

If you’re in the King’s Cross area, you’ll find Lightroom.  Founded by the same team as the Bridge Theatre, this home of artist-led storytelling works with major artistic talents across art, music, film, fashion, science and more to create unique immersive experiences.   Over the summer, you can choose between David Hockney,  fashion,  space travel,  the prehistoric world of dinosaurs – and A Film For the Future,  created by over 150 artists as the visual accompaniment to Coldplay’s Moon Music.
