Bloomsbury Theatre, Theatre venue in Gordon Street, London, United Kingdom
The Bloomsbury Theatre is a performance venue on Gordon Street featuring a main auditorium with 541 seats and a separate black box studio space for smaller productions. The building includes an orchestra pit and uses both spaces to accommodate different types of events.
The venue was originally established in 1968 as the Collegiate Theatre and operated for many years as a performance space. After major renovations in 2015, it reopened to audiences in February 2019.
The venue is closely tied to University College London and hosts regular student productions alongside professional performances. It serves as an important space for the local arts community to present theatre, music, and dance.
The theatre is located near several underground stations and easily accessible by public transport. The venue offers student discounts and maintains an accessible program of events for both university members and the general public.
Adele performed her first solo concert at this venue in January 2008, shortly after her debut album reached number one on the UK charts. The performance marked an early milestone in her career at this location.
