Little Angel Theatre

Little Angel Theatre is a puppet theatre in Islington featuring a 100-seat auditorium where puppeteers present performances for children and families throughout the year. The venue showcases different types of puppets and performance styles across its changing productions.

The theatre opened in November 1961 in a former Temperance hall and became London's first permanent puppet theatre. With this founding, a new home for professional puppetry art was established in the city.

The theatre creates puppet shows that blend traditional techniques with modern stories and adaptations of children's books. Performances here are made for families and often support local artists working in puppetry.

The theatre is located in Islington and is easily reached by public transport, with bus stops and Underground stations nearby. It offers family-friendly visit times and has programmes for different age groups.

The theatre's workshop creates specialized puppets and marionettes for each production and maintains a collection of handmade characters. This handcrafted approach allows puppets to be designed specifically for each story being told.
