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.

How Screenwriting Made Me A Better Novelist

***Event subject to review***

Guest Author: Emma Jane Unsworth

Tonight Kellie and Emma will be in conversation with the award-winning novelist and screenwriter Emma Jane Unsworth.

After the success of Emma’s second novel, Animals, the book was adapted into a film for which she wrote the screenplay. She’s currently adapting her latest novel, Adults, for television as well as writing a memoir about post-natal depression that is not depressing.

Join in the discussion as we talk about the creative challenges of plot and structure and how adaption has influenced Emma’s approach to prose. Whether you’re interested in fiction, screenwriting or both it’s going to be a fun one!
