Cockpit Theatre
By Patricia Fallon
The Cockpit Theatre is located in Marylebone. The theatre was designed by Edward Mendelsohn built in 1969-70. They have a focus on theatre training and is owned and operated by the City of Westminster College.
Between 1993 and 1995 the Soho Theatre Company took up residence and relaunched itself after a period of homelessness. During this period they premiered the works of over 35 new writers.
It’s hugely important for the area to have a theatre that now operates as a full time theatre and training venue.
