About Sam Wanamaker Playhouse (New..)
340 Theatre
Candlelight flickers across carved oak panels while painted cherubs gaze down from the ceiling, watching over your celebration in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. This extraordinary indoor Jacobean theatre brings something you won't find anywhere else in London, where 340 guests can gather surrounded by the warm glow of beeswax candles and centuries of theatrical tradition. We've hosted everything from milestone birthday parties to corporate celebrations here, and each time the space transforms. The semi-circular seating wraps around the stage, creating an intimate atmosphere where every guest feels part of the action. Those intricate wooden carvings and celestial ceiling paintings become the backdrop to your event, offering endless conversation starters as people explore the craftsmanship. The playhouse works brilliantly for performances and entertainment-focused events. Picture your guests arriving to find musicians on stage, or perhaps you're planning theatrical entertainment as part of the evening. The acoustics, designed for unamplified performances, mean every word and note carries perfectly throughout the space. Despite the historic setting, we've ensured modern comfort with air conditioning keeping everyone comfortable and Wi-Fi throughout. Our in-house catering team knows how to work within this unique space, and yes, we're fully licensed, so the drinks can flow as freely as the conversation. The venue is completely accessible too, with wheelchair access and step-free entry ensuring everyone can join your celebration. Getting here couldn't be easier. We're right on the Southbank, with Mansion House, Cannon Street, and London Bridge stations all within walking distance. Your guests can stroll along the Thames before arriving, adding to the sense of occasion. The combination of location, atmosphere, and that unmistakable candlelit ambiance creates celebrations that guests remember long after the final toast.
