London's best local theatres
Bush Theatre
The Bush Theatre in Shepherd's Bush began life in 1972 above a pub that held only 80 people, but in 2010 it moved to an old public library building. Under the artistic directorship of Madani Younis, the theatre became one of the city's most influential artistic spaces. Now that Lynette Linton has taken control of it, the theatre continues to host groundbreaking works.

Arcola Theatre
Set up by artistic director Mehmet Ergen in 2000, the Arcola in Dalston has two theatre spaces and plays host to a number of works. As well as hosting new writing, they hold Grimeborn, an opera (歌剧) festival that runs for several weeks every summer.

Southwark Playhouse
Southwark Playhouse began life in 1993, with a disused workshop being turned into a theatre space. With two performance spaces, they put on a wide spread of works, from musicals to new plays. The Playhouse is moving into two new venues (剧场), a flagship site at Elephant and Castle and another in the arches of London Bridge Station.

Rose Theatre
It's worth making the journey to the Rose. It opened in 2008 and its layout (布局) was based on that of the original Elizabethan Rose Theatre on London's Bankside. It hosts works from theatre companies as well as producing its own, and can attract the best. The world's first public performance of Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend took place here in 2017.
