Sadler's Wells Theatre, Theatre company in Clerkenwell, London Borough of Islington, United Kingdom.

The Sadler's Wells Theatre contains two performance spaces: a main auditorium accommodating 1,560 spectators and the smaller Lilian Baylis Studio for intimate shows.

Richard Sadler established the first theater on this location in 1683 as a Musick House near natural springs, marking it as London's second public theater after the Restoration.

The venue transformed into a center for dance performances, presenting international companies and supporting the development of new choreographic works throughout the year.

Members receive priority booking access and discounts on performances for an annual fee of £25, while young adults between 16-30 can purchase tickets for £10.

The theater featured a large water tank in the 1800s to stage nautical performances, earning it the temporary name of Water Theatre during this period.
