The King’s Head Theatre was established in 1970. We are known for our challenging work and support of young artists. In 2019, 87,031 audience members saw a show of ours; 44,607 at our 110-seater home on Upper Street and 71, 544 on tour. At our home in Islington, we had 861 performances of 84 different shows. We are committed to fighting prejudice through the work we stage, the artists and the staff we work with and by producing work for minority audience groups. We believe in fair pay for all on the fringe and create accessible routes for early career artists to stage their work; work we are passionate about. In 2021, the King’s Head Theatre aims to realise its creatively and financially sustainable future by moving into a new venue in Islington Square, neighbouring our current location. The proposals would see the creation of a 250-seat auditorium, along with a bar, foyer and outstanding facilities for actors and audiences alike. Despite the challenges in 2020 due to Covid-19, the King’s Head Theatre secured 98% of its budgeted fundraised income alongside ACE and CRF funding.
