Theatre Peckham’s 40th Anniversary

We’re celebrating four decades with our community at Theatre Peckham!


Theatre Peckham turns 40 this year, and we’re in the mood for a celebration! We’re opening the doors on Saturday 2nd May from 1-3pm and we’d love you to be there for a community day to remember.

As a community and learning theatre with a passion for nurturing creative talent, we know that Theatre Peckham owes its success to the people who have come through its doors over the past four decades. Whether you have grown up in the Theatre as part of our Academy, you’ve developed your skills as a Young Peckham alum, or you have simply been through our doors to watch a show or two, we’d love to have you back for an afternoon of celebration.

Please join us for a very special community day with food and drinks, archival displays, crafting, workshops, music and more. As well as plenty of opportunities for you to share Your Theatre Peckham Story.

Event: 2nd May, 1pm – 3pm
Location: Theatre Peckham
Tickets: None required
