WELCOME TO THE TEA HOUSE THEATRE

An independent tea house, theatre and events venue in the heart of Vauxhall.

Housed in a beautiful Victorian former pub beside the historic Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, the Tea House Theatre is a place to eat, drink, meet, work, relax and be entertained.

By day, settle in for exceptional loose-leaf tea, hearty breakfasts, proper sandwiches, homemade cakes and freshly prepared food. By night, the Tea House comes alive with theatre, live music, jazz, poetry, murder mysteries and special events throughout the year.

We are trying to be different. We will not hurry you. If you visit us on your lunch break, then have one — take your time, enjoy your food and go back to work properly refreshed. If you want to have a meeting, we will leave you to it. If you are “working from home”, we have Wi-Fi and plenty of space to settle in.

If you have children, we have highchairs, a chest of toys and milkshakes. We always have the daily papers, so please relax, take a load off and share in what we are trying to create.

There is no rush, no corporate formula and — famously — no coffee. Just good tea, good food, conversation, creativity and a wonderfully individual atmosphere.

Come for breakfast or lunch, spend an afternoon over a pot of tea, join us for dinner and a show, or simply come in and have a cuppa.

The Words of Anna Kavan

THE WORDS OF ANNA KAVAN - A READING

On Thursday 7th Feb at 7pm there will be a truly unique opportunity to discover the writing of Anna Kavan. An extraordinary writer whose works explored the poetry, creativity, and the terror of madness.

Anna Kavan is one of the great enigmatic figures of English literature, and she takes us into the frightening world of the dark side of life.

Her work has been compared with Doris Lessing, Brian Aldiss and Christopher Priest. Lawrence Durrell compared Anna Kavan to Virginia Wolf, and Anais Nin.

Readings will be from her book ASYLUM PIECE, of which Joyce Carol Oates wrote 'There are gems here, passages of startling poignancy and radiance...'

Join us the TEA HOUSE THEATRE in this unique exploration of a dangerous and exhilarating artist...
