       ABOUT THE TRICYCLE THEATRE

       The Tricycle views the world through a variety of lenses, bringing unheard voices into the mainstream. It presents high quality and innovative work, which provokes debate and emotionally engages. Located in Brent, the most diverse borough in London, the Tricycle is a local venue with an international vision.

      Converted from a music and dance hall, the Tricycle opened in 1980 as the permanent home of the Wakefield Tricycle Company – a touring theatre company which presented new plays and children’s theatre throughout Britain and internationally. Ironically, they never played Wakefield.

      Today, with Indhu Rubasingham as Artistic Director, the Tricycle Theatre continues its reputation for world-class British and international work, reflecting the exceptional diversity of its local community.

      Open seven days a week, the Tricycle has a unique 235 seat theatre, an independent 300 seat cinema, a vibrant bar and café, plus three rehearsal spaces which are used for our productions, workshops and Creative Learning projects.

      Recent productions include Red Velvet, which launched Indhu Rubasingham’s inaugural season and returns to the Tricycle in 2014 prior to a New York transfer; The Arabian Nights, a modern re-imagining of ancient tales for young people; and Paper Dolls, an extraordinary true story of cultures colliding in Tel Aviv which was developed with The Sundance Institute Theatre Program. We have also recently co-produced with Shared Experience, and collaborated with Tiata Fahodzi, Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse Theatres, and Eclipse Theatre.

       CINEMA

      Our luxury 300 seat cinema shows the best art-house and mainstream films alongside festivals and special Q&A screenings.

       “This King of Kilburn is a sleek and stylish single-screen gem that attracts moviegoers from all over London”

       The Guardian

      Highlights include our Q&As with acclaimed writers and directors, such as Moira Buffini, Dominic Dromgoole, Stephen Frears, Mike Leigh and Ken Loach, and with renowned actors including Jim Broadbent, Kim Cattrall, Paul Chahidi, Julie Christie, Glenda Jackson, Simon Paisley Day and Rosamund Pike.

      Recent partners include: NT Live; Globe on Screen; BFI London Film Festival; Images of Black Women Film Festival; the UK Jewish Film Festival; DocHouse; Kilburn Film Festival.

       The Tricycle is a hub where cultures connect, creativity can flourish and curiosity is engendered.

       CREATIVE LEARNING

      The Tricycle’s Creative Learning programme works to develop the imaginations, aspirations and potential of children and young people in the diverse community of Brent and beyond. Collaborating with schools and young people, we use theatre, drama and film, to bring unheard young voices into the mainstream; creating work that engages the emotions and provokes debate. Whether as audiences, writers, performers or producers of new work at the theatre, young people are at the Tricycle’s heart.
