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.

Monday Theatre School - Anton Chekhov Acting Workshops

  • Tea House Theatre 139 Vauxhall Walk London, SE11 5HL United Kingdom (map)

Dear Actors, 

Monday Theatre School - Anton Chekhov

A seminal figure in the birth of Modernism.

A study of the "submerged life of the text".

ALL LEVELS WELCOME.

No experience needed.

We are inviting you to the series of three consecutive workshops based on the works of celebrated playwright Anton Chekhov. We will be looking at his lesser known (but equally brilliant) works and using his text as exercise material.

Chekhov is known mostly as a writer, however due to the fact of his involvement with late nineteenth century most progressive theatre practitioners and movements, and especially Stanislavsky and Moscow Arts Theatre, he can be easily considered a theatre practitioner (not only a playwright). His plays, due to their perfect structure and well-drawn characters present a wonderful opportunity for any beginner to master their performing skills.

Classes will include speech and movement exercises, improvisation and of course imagination building exercises and games.


Classes will be held from 7pm.
Limited spaces
Mondays 11th, 18th and 25th July

1 Session £20
Full Course of 3 Sessions £50
