Park Theatre in Islington

It is a small and very intimate theatre, which makes it so much more special. It is a true testament to "less is more". The production of "Saga of Forsyte" I saw on the weekend (both Part 1 at 15:00 and Part 2 at 19:30 same day) was a marvel. Amazing cast, fantastic production, absolutely flawless performance! Absolutely loved it. Theatre has two bars, lots of restaurants nearby. Very reasonably priced tickets. It is now officially one of my favourite places to keep an eye on!

Lovely theatre, wonderful staff and great pizzas. Fully accessible too. Literally couldn't ask for more.

An intimate venue allow on you to get close up. To the stage and the acting And A.first class pizza from the bar

Lovely intimate theatre with a similar layout to the Donmar Warehouse. There are two auditoriums. Our play was in the Park 200 auditorium, which I guess seats 200. There is plenty of front-of-house space, with two bars and plenty of seating. They serve pizza.

Great theatre. The Forsyte saga is amazing, worth going.

Surprise very enjoyable two part play.Thanks

An extraordinary cultural nugget in a vibrant part of London.

Awesome theatre night! Ostan rocks five stars

Exceeded my expectations. Small intimate experience. Loved it

Great theatre for contemporary thought provoking original productions

Great opportunity to have an immersive experience with actors getting up close to the action.

You can see some real gems here, and the theatres are small enough to see well from all seats. Great atmosphere too

Saw 'Bitter Lemons' which was excellent, my congratulations to the two actors.

Lovely small local fringe theatre, with a bar and some food to boot. Shame the usher did not know where our seats were. The play though divided opinions, even with Amanda Abbington.

Lovely local theatre & great production

We visited for the first time yesterday. A 5 minute walk from Finsbury Park station. A busy and thriving venue, great pizzas which we ordered online with our tickets. The production was amazing and of a very high standard. We will be back.

Very intimate settings, touching, and movie play. Will be following Sophie Craig closely.

‘When it happens to you’ was an excellent play dealing with a delicate topic. All four actors were amazing. We were gripped for 90 minutes albeit rather emotionally drained by the end of it. Worked well in a small theatre. Very intimate space.

Went to see When it Happens To You - it was gripping and the theatre has such a great atmosphere which added to the performance.

The Park Theatre's intimate atmosphere creates a welcoming space for audiences to immerse themselves in the productions. This theatre consistently delivers thought-provoking and captivating performances.

Arrived just on time for the performance last night due to train disruption staff were lovely and relaxed us. Lovely theatre, small and intimate and the play was brilliant

I have seen "When it happens to you" - important and interesting drama. But it was little scary for me to sit on such balcony. Probably not for people like me, I need more space and closed partitions at least to feel safe.

Always excellent productions & shows at this beautiful and comfortable off west end theatre. Support the arts! Visit your local theatre!

Lovely venue Staff v helpful and friendly..... Play was v good as well...... Seats right a the top not so great but ticket prices were cheaper. Would sit somewhere else next time

Very good Theatre small but cosy

A really nice space with a (mostly) good production. Shame about the world's grumpiest usher.

An intimate venue that has so much character. The staff here were friendly and helpful. We were seated downstairs, and it seemed that wherever you sat, you had a great view of the stage. We were at the back in the 4th row, and still, we were very close to the stage. The stage is in the middle of the room with seats on all 4 sides, but because the stage revolves slowly, you continually have a good view of all the cast. We loved it here. The theatre is located very close to Finsbury Park station, and if you fancy something to eat before visiting the theatre, there are a number of restaurants very close by

Great theatre. Small but mighty. Pizza restaurant and bar. Intermit performances. First visit today and would go again.

Excellent place to watch a play

Great play, actor super Great pizza Friendly staff

Small venue but good facilities and friendly staff

What a delightful theatre! We travelled far to see The Marilyn Conspiracy and absolutely loved the ambience and vibe. Being so intimate a theatre was a wonderful experience and really showcased how talented the actors are. The bar staff were friendly and the prices are decent. Plus finally a theatre where there are enough toilets 😅. 100% recommended

Small theatre close to Finsbury Park tube station. We saw a play about Marilyn Munroe 'in the round' which had a turntable covering most of the stage, so the actors didn't have their backs to anyone for long. There is a quite large bar upstairs (which we didn't notice until too late) so you don't have to wait in the tiny bar on the entrance level.

Excellent play, difficult location to find.

Great, friendly place, fantastic play, really nice pizza, friendly staff

Lovely small theatre around the back of Finsbury Park station. Airy bar areas on two different floors inside, with some seating outside by the entrance. All the staff were great, and everywhere was spotless. On site pizza, which was very popular. Theatre seats are cozy, but it adds to the small setting.

Fantastic staff. After just 1 visit this has jumped onto to my 'favourite theatres' list. Love it!

The theatre is very unusual, but friendly atmosphere.

A truly wonderful outdoor theatre experience, especially in sunny summer when the day transits into night and birds and trees around all add to the show, in the midst of blooming Regent Park.

A pet hate of mine is plastic wine glasses used here. The play was really good the actress with the ipad was distracting. The seats don't tip,really awkward if you are in front row people can't pass.

Lovely staff and quality, innovative and creative productions. Wonderfully intimate space. Not a bad seat in the house!

Probably my favourite theatre in London, and I live south of the river. A wide variety of shows. The staff are all very friendly. Get there early and enjoy their outstanding pizzas!! 👏

Theatre is a nice venue: staff are all very helpful and all parts of the theatre are wheelchair accessible. Show ((Song of songs) well staged but why does everyone have to be miked up in a small theatre? All too loud, so much so that I couldn't distinguish the words. Sad, because the performers were good.

Had a good experience we saw Mr Sleepybum lots of audience participation great for children 👍

Lovely small theatre. Interesting shows

Lovely small theatre with original, quirky productions. I went to see the one woman show ‘algorithms’. It was funny and great to be so close to the stage. Pizza looked good but drinks were expensive.

Lovely people, great place as well 🙂🙂

The theatre was great and the staff were very friendly. We enjoyed the light house performance

Very up close theatre, good seats and comfortable.

Lovely intimate theatre, we watched Whodunit unreleased (3), which was hilarious.

A great show (Unrehearsed 3) providing important support for an important venue. Please show them some love!

Good size theatre to watch a play. Interesting design includes easy access to either bar.

Go see Whodunnit Unrehearsed3, brilliant improv with a different star every night

A really intimate theatre, off west end. Always a pleasure to see a play there

Fantastic gem in the heart of North London with 2 fabulous spaces - a 200 seater and the more intimate 90. Great, welcoming staff and always something good to see. Really good pizza too, if you fancy a bite before the show!

Lovely small theatre. As you can see from the photo rows A&B are right next to the stage .

Great theatre with an intimate vibe and interesting productions. Enjoyed Whodunnit 3 and the Park’s ethos of theatre for all. Bar area nice with very quick service. Didn’t try the Park Pizza but it looked delicious and will definitely have some next time.

Fantastic venue with great views from all seats. Felt as if we were part of the play. Great acoustics and comfy seats. Staff were friendly and helpful and the coffee was great too. Love the addition of pizza ovens and pastries for pre and interval snacks. We will be back.

A super, modernised venue, which also supports small groups and schools. Unusual setup for viewing, but comfortable and close to the action. Saw Whodunnit (unrehearsed) 3, which was brilliant. An interesting concept and wonderfully performed.

This is a really lovely and intimate Theatre space. They have an amazing outreach programme to the local community. The whodunnit unrehearsed shows have been brilliantly entertaining and help to raise much needed funds to keep the theatre going. Highly recommended.

We saw Whodunnit 3, totally fantastic cast and acting, great script. We were also very fortunate to see the amazing Catherine Tate, the one person my daughter was hoping to see, so she was absolutely thrilled. The venue was great, helpful staff, reasonably priced bar and comfortable seating. Had such a great night. We'll definitely be back!

Great little theatre away from the West end with some great productions that feel really initimate. Good bar and pizza on site, what's not to like?

A small and cozy theater. In the lobby, there's delicious pizza and a wide selection of drinks.

Lovely little theatre needs support so for a great night out in Finsbury pop in

Watched Who dunnit (unrehearsed) 3. To say this play is great and funny etc. is an understatement. This play was written by genies and performed by an amazing cast. The theatre and their supporting staff are full of energy and all enthusiastic towards genuine creative production. It was such a joy to experience this. Thank you.

Lovely intimate Theatre, great pizza as well

A really fun evening at this intimate theatre. Should you wish a pizza in the interval, be sure to order early!

I love this theatre. They get some great plays here with big names and whatever seat you have, the view is good. Tickets are affordable compared to many other theatres. Staff are fantastic too!

Went to see Whodunnit Unrehearsed and it was a fantastic night. Great production and is for a worthy cause of making theatre available to all and also to continue workshops for the minority which is provided by park Theatre. Please support such a worthy cause. You will not be disappointed. Productions here are highly recommended.

Great small space with talented people producing affordable quality theatre for everyone

Even with its kind charity intentions it is as bad as it gets.

We saw the play HIR. Staff were amazing, very accommodating and friendly. We met the founder of the theatre and the director, both wonderfully inviting. The atmosphere is very homely compared to that of other theatres. Love that it is a community theatre and they offer many opportunities, even acting and vocal classes for elderly care homes.

Toilets are a bit dragged (patrons fault) but really nice theatre, food and people).

Cute little theatre, small but it means you’re really up close to the action! Nice bar area too and pretty comfortable seats.

Lovely venue! Team friendly and welcoming as always. Can't recommend enough and it really needs our support. Watched "Kim's convenience" and "Hir" both really good productions. "Hir", probably not a comedy as mentioned on the site. Still, lovely local theatre, practically next to Finsbury Park station, lots of cafés and restaurants nearby for your pre-theatre, though the theatre has a very nice bar too.

Very small theatre, very up close and personal to the performances. Reasonable prices. The pizza is great too!

Great local theatre in Finsbury Park. There is a good bar area where you can get lots of drinks and pizzas on order before or after you watch your show. The theatre is quite small, and the seating is a bit cramped, but it has a really nice art house feel to it and would definitely come back here to see productions in the future.

Amazing cast, staging and sound Hir (not his or her)

A lovely, interesting building. Staff were generally nice and pleasant. Leg room quite limited in a lot of the seating, but not a huge surprise for somewhere like this. Intimate setting for shows makes for a really great experience, highly recommended!

Great theatre, and good value for money. Their pizzas as also incredible. Just make sure you get there early before they've sold them all. We went to see Leaves of Glass, 5/5

We saw Kim's Convienance Play here. Great venue and we were lucky to receive a goody bag at the end of the show. Shame we could not stay to meet cast. Look forward to coming back again.

Good facility, sight lines were good and appeared to be good from all seats. The play was good and the quality of the production was good. It is a small building that fits a lot in but can understandably feel crowded in the public areas. Pricing was very fair

Excellent theatre. Great views all around. Odd to see the staff holding up boards asking people to turn off mobiles (nobody paid any attention!).

We love The Park Theatre, and catch performances as often as we can. We were really looking forward to seeing “Kim’s Convenience”, having been avid fans of the Netflix series. We were not disappointed, the writing and character development are perfect, and the story centred around the complexities of family, is spot on. Laugh, and ponder on the sub story, above all have a great time.

Lovely little venue with affordable pricing, especially during the week (compared to the West End) I've only ever been on the balcony but you are very close to the stage regardless or where you sit and the view is good.

Came here to watch Kim's convenience, would highly recommend this show. The theatre was very clean, volunteers were very helpful and friendly. Drinks were extremely expensive, although this could be expected.

Cosy little community theatre near Finsbury Park Tube. Bar staff very friendly. Theatre staff seemed to struggle with directing people to the correct seats. Enjoyable evening though.

Absolutely amazing performance of 'Leaves of Glass', today. What a truly powerful play. All 4 actors were utterly brilliant. Great to see Joseph Potter again, still remember him in 'Poltergeist', at the Arcola last year. Fabulous venue, such a great time out! 😁

Managed to get street parking, but not cheap. Thestre was comfortable, performance of 'Kim's Convenience ' was worth it!

Beautiful little theatre with a bar and pizza oven on the ground floor and a bar and bigger seating area upstairs. Relatively new theatre. Crampt when busy and the theatre we were in didn't have the most comfy seating but it was a nice experience. Not much leg room on the bench seating. The staff were lovely. Definitely, I would go again.

One of the best theatres imaginable. Small but not cramped, with two levels of gallery, and seats are allocated spaces on comfy benches. The stage is relatively small, at knee level for the bottom gallery, yet the actors still make it feel bountiful. The front of house is beautifully decorated, with affordable drinks and food, and a pizza oven! The whole place is very immersive, and caters to comfort very well.

Great but I didn't like the play myself my daughter and grandchildren loved it one man and three girls

Cool and modern with intimate theatres and unusual shows. Will definitely be back.

Excellent theatre, great atmosphere and obviously a fantastic performance!!

I saw a matinée performance here on a Thursday after. It was theatre in the round and a lovely space. I'm so glad there is a lift as I have mobility problems. I'll definitely come here again.

Went to see Kim's convenience which was excellent and would recommend to anyone but unfortunately cannot say the same about the venue. The staff manning one of the doors was clueless about where the seats were which was unhelpful and meant most people were walking across the sides of the stage to their seats. But most appallingly my partner was denied toilet access during the play which is humiliating and meant she suffered from extreme pain and embarrassment unable to enjoy herself. There was no mention verbal or written warning that there would be no exit or interval during the play. Shocking display of zero humility and respect for the needs of other people.

The play Kim’s Convenience was lovely and the actors were endearing. The venue was staff were also lovely, apart from the lady who wouldn’t let me leave for the toilet during the play. That was really demeaning and caused me a lot of physical pain. I would suggest going to a play being prepared not to leave for 90 minutes

Really Enjoyed the Show The server at the ground floor coffee shop was Excellent guy. Programme started half an hour late Queuing in the corridor to go in the show can be addressed.

A Heartwarming Experience at Kim's Convenience, Park Theatre, Finsbury Park! Just saw a performance of "Kim's Convenience" at Park Theatre in Finsbury Park, and it was truly a heartwarming experience. The play, explores the dynamics of a Korean-Canadian family running a convenience store, offering a delightful mix of humor and poignant moments. The cast's touching performances brought the characters to life. There is humour and very touching moments adding drama to the narrative and drawing the audience into the Kim family's world. Park Theatre's intimate setting definitely enhanced the overall experience, allowing for a close connection with the characters, More importantly I love this seating arrangement so much, and no human head is in anyone's way. The set design was truly impressive and stunning, creating a believable convenience store backdrop that added to the play's realism and sheer excitement! I loved it and wanted to go down and stack the shelves and explore the shop. The lighting and sound was fantastic!! "Kim's Convenience" succeeds in delivering a universal message about love, acceptance, and the importance of understanding one another. In conclusion, "Kim's Convenience" at Park Theatre in Finsbury Park is a must-see for those seeking a well-crafted, emotionally resonant theatrical experience. The talented cast, thoughtful storytelling, and intimate venue combine to make it an unforgettable evening of entertainment. Please go watch it and support this beautiful modern relaxed theatre.

I watched Kim's Convenience with my family, it was funny and identical to the TV show. The theatre is small and cosy. There's a bar and pizza you can order in the entrance/foyer and also a bar upstairs.
