See you in the new year!
As a result of London's move to Tier 3, The Old Red Lion Theatre Pub will be closing from Wednesday 16th December.
We had worked so hard to adapt our venue for the public to safely enjoy and were looking forward to re-opening our theatre this weekend with a new season of work. After being dark for 9 months, we are disappointed that our closure has been extended, but understand that these measures are necessary to safeguard the city that we all love.
We'd like to thank everyone that has worked tirelessly over the last few weeks to bring our new season of work to the stage. We have made the decision to postpone this season until it is safe for us to continue, but are proud that our first digital production of our Christmas show December, will be available to stream online from 20th December!
All ticket holders will be contacted in due course regarding refunds; please bare with us whilst we work through this process.
We thank you for your continued support and understanding ❤️

Aside from its rich history, The Old Red Lion Theatre Pub also offers an impressive selection of live sports events.
