The Bridge Theatre Building Tour
The 懂色帝 East London Architect's Group went on this exclusive building tour, led by the architects who designed the building: Haworth Tompkins Architects.
The Bridge Theatre is London's first commercial theatre of scale for 80 years. Using innovative prefabrication techniques, the 900 to 1000 seat flexible auditorium is a collaboration between the architects, specialist manufacturer Tait Stage Technologies, and client London Theatre Company.
The 'as found' site comprised a shell and core, designed without a final use being established. It was a big challenge to fit a theatre in this existing space under a housing development, with minimal access to the site. The design had to work hard to incorporate existing columns coming down in locations which were not ideal.
The auditorium is ground-breaking both in design and construction, and in theatrical staging flexibility.
