Royal National Theatre Studio, theatre in Lambeth, Greater London, UK
The Royal National Theatre Studio is a theatre building in Lambeth that provides space for theatre work and creative development. It contains several large studios for rehearsals, smaller workrooms, dressing rooms, and a public archive area with reading and seminar rooms.
The building was originally built in 1958 and showcases Brutalism with rough concrete and bold forms. It underwent major renovation in 2008, improving technical facilities while preserving its original character and history.
The Studio is a place where writers and artists develop and share their work together. Weekly gatherings bring everyone together to see progress and discuss next steps as a community.
The building is accessible and offers flexible spaces for different types of work, with natural light thanks to modern glazing. The facility is well-organized with clear separation between rehearsal studios, office spaces, and public archive areas.
A notable feature is a double-height circulation corridor that once served as a scenic paint workshop and still shows layers of stage paint built up over years. These visible layers tell the story of decades of creative work happening in a single space.
