As well as the main auditorium seating 200, the building includes a 90-seat studio theatre, a rehearsal space and a Café Bar.[2] BuildingIn November 2009, Artistic Director Jez Bond and Creative Director Melli Marie acquired a disused three-storey office building at 11-13 Clifton Terrace.[3] Planning permission was granted in October 2010.[4] The theatre was designed by David Hughes.[5][6] Following a campaign supported by prominent theatre figures such as Sir Ian McKellen and Alan Rickman, the £2.6m cost was met by private donors and by the sale of flats built above the theatre.[7][8][9] The two auditoria, Park200 and Park90, have natural light which can be blacked out electronically. Park200 is a thrust stage with fixed seating on three sides, and can be configured for “theatre in the round.” Park90’s flexible seating can be laid out in a range of configurations. The Morris Space on the third floor is used for workshops, classes, and performances for up to 60 people. Backstage are three dressing rooms, a green room, wardrobe, offices and prop stores.[6] The Café Bar also hosts occasional cabaret and songwriting performances. ProductionsHighlights of the opening season included the UK premiere of These Shining Lives by Melanie Marnich with a cast featuring Honeysuckle Weeks and Charity Wakefield and the world premiere of Oliver Cotton's Daytona, starring Maureen Lipman, which then toured the UK.[10] The theatre has had critical and box office successes with different types of productions. These include:
The theatre has also presented innovative work such as Grounded which incorporated British Sign Language (October 2015),[17] and Brainstorm (2015), an exploration of the teenage brain in cooperation with Islington Community Theatre, the Wellcome Trust and the National Theatre.[18] Avaes Mohammad's double bill about radicalization in the UK Hurling Rubble at the Sun/Hurling Rubble at the Moon was premiered in May 2015.[19] Many Park Theatre plays have moved on to the West End, most recently the Second World War drama Pressure, which following a sold-out April 2018 run in Park200 went on to the Ambassadors Theatre in June.[20]. Park Theatre won The Stage magazine's Fringe Theatre of the Year Award for 2015.[21] Reflecting the theatre's unsubsidized status (it is a registered charity), the majority of plays have been financed by external production companies, with Park Theatre acting as the host venue. It plans to stage an increasing number of in-house productions as funds become available. In July 2017, Ian McKellen premiered a new one-man show, Shakespeare, Tolkien, Others & You in the Park200, donating the entire proceeds of the nine-performance run to the theatre.[22][23] In 2018 the theatre began to realize its ambition of producing or co-producing a greater proportion of shows. It began in May with its own production of Robert Schenkkan's post-Trump dystopia Building the Wall, directed by Jez Bond.[24] The second in-house production of 2018 was the world premiere of Danny Robins' The End of the Pier, directed by Hanna Price, running from 11 July to 11 August.[25]. Script AcceleratorPark Theatre's Script Accelerator programme began in 2013, inviting producers or theatre companies to pitch a play they would like to develop.[26] Six are selected each year. Each producer selects actors and a director, and is given professional advice and working time within the building to develop the script. The four-weeks process culminates with a 20-minute critiqued presentation of each piece to an audience in Park200. Some scripts have gone on to full productions. Hot Coals Theatre Ensemble's Storm in a Teacup (February 2014)[27] and Michael Ross's Happy to Help (June 2016)[28] were both Script Accelerator selections which went on to play in Park90's regular season. Social responsibilityLike many of London’s independent theatres, Park Theatre aims to be both a good neighbour locally and a progressive social influence. With donor support, it discounts a substantial number of tickets for local residents and schools each season, and runs acting classes for local children (Playground Players) and adults (Park Players). In 2016 it began a Reminiscence therapy programme for people affected by dementia and their carers. The theatre has a policy of transparency and open-book accounting for both in-house and incoming productions, in an effort to ensure that actors are properly paid.[29] References1. ^Cecilia Sundstrom, "Psychopaths, nudity and Maureen Lipman launch new Finsbury Park theatre", Hackney Gazette, 27 March 2013.
