We donāt need to start from scratch. We need to start from care, and memory, and clarity about what we want. A place and an idea that supports artists must be shaped by artists. Join actoratthecentre on May 1st.


Join us on Thursday to share your thoughts on the future of actor training. If you cant be there in person then come along online and hear the thoughts of Simon Callow and Paul W Fleming Live link coming soon.


Energy, life & great ideas! We campaigned for 3yrs to return training/community to TowerSt. Seven Dials Playhouse refused to listen & tragically weāve lost our building, however itās clear that we havenāt lost the spirit & drive that created #TheActorsCentre. We build again. #actors

Brilliant evening! Simon Callow who was there at the start of #TheActorsCentre, Darwinny2 former artistic director, Paul W Fleming Equity Gen Sec, the actoratthecentre team & a room full of actors/creatives with passion, drive & belief in the need for vital provision/community.


Brilliant news that Paul W Fleming has been re-elected. Congratulations.


šØš± The Chancellor is currently reviewing all public spending from scratch. Please join me in signing the Campaign for the Arts petition to remind the UK Government: the arts make our lives happier and our communities stronger. Now is the moment to invest in them. campaignforthearts.org/petitions/spenā¦

Stand with actoratthecentre Equity & the 5.8k who have signed chng.it/X6r6DSZWVj . For 40 yrs we had community, support & on going affordable training. Seven Dials Playhouse wiped it out, but actors need a home. Help us build one. A new Actors Centre.

"This multi-strand strategy ensures the organisation is not reliant on a single income stream" Pretty rich when they have ONE income stream - the sale of the lease of a building that was bought by actors, for actors. Seven Dials Playhouse whining is unbearable. sevendialsplayhouse.co.uk/news/statementā¦

Weāve campaigned for 3 yrs to return training/community & hold Seven Dials Playhouse to account. Weāve sent Charity Commission comprehensive information & itās a relief that a statutory enquiry is finally underway.

This is welcome and overdue. A statutory inquiry into Seven Dials Playhouse will hopefully resolve the poor decisions and financial issues that the trustees and management have overseen.

Thanks to everyone who supports the actoratthecentre campaign. Thanks to Equity Paul W Fleming Equity London South Branch Equity London North Branch As we move forward with spirit & determination, we will continue to hold Seven Dials Playhouse to account.Charity Commission


We tried to collaborate with Seven Dials Playhouse for 3 yrs to return training & bring much needed money into the building. This would have provided vital provision for actors & help Tower st, bought by actors for actors, remain viable. The Charity Commission enquiry is very welcome

The takeover of #TheActorsCentre during Covid & removal of training/community has been a financial disaster & has denied actors/creatives access to vital provision. We move forward positively after the loss of our building, but the Charity Commission investigation is very welcome.

Today more than ever actors need affordable/accessible training, community/support. Seven Dials Playhouse decided that they knew better, failed to listen to actoratthecentre & 1000s actors/creatives. We move forward with renewed energy & hope. Actors deserve a home & we build again.
