Reviews of Arcola Theatre
"Excellent play (Under Black Rock) and Arcola was a friendly and pleasant place with a good atmosphere before and after, and good intimate space in studio 1 to watch a play."
"Cool place. We say a play recently and left very happy with everything. The atmosphere was warm, sound travelled excellent and the performance was amazing. Friendly staff, good variety of food options."
"I love the venue I had listened a lovely concert. One of my favourite Kurdish singer was giving music concert there. Lighting was very nice and venue well managed. The workers was very helpful and friendly. They have cafe bar inside the building you can get hot,cold and alcohol drinks to chill. They have toilets to use if you need to. Overall if you have any events or concert or any other things in this place don't miss it. And also very near Dalston junction train station just 2 minutes walk away."
"Great little theatre a stones throw from Dalston Junction Station. We watched Tim Keys show Mulberry in studio 1 and it was a fantastic space with great visibility. We will definitely return"
"First time back to the Arcola in a long while, and what a treat! OMG 'The Poltergeist' was absolutely brilliant! I've never seen a show quite like it. Hats off to Joseph Potter, you really blew my mind, so thank you! Your playing 6 different people.... the voices were amazing! New James Norton?"
