The Britten Theatre is one of London’s best-loved opera venues. Its responsive acoustics and intimate auditorium are appreciated by performers and audiences alike.
The Britten Theatre’s simple elegance, responsive acoustics and intimate tiered auditorium is the perfect space for opera, music, theatre and ballet performances. One of South Kensington’s best kept secrets, the theatre is named after Benjamin Britten, a former student of the RCM. The Britten Theatre was designed in the style of an Italian opera theatre, with a proscenium arch, orchestra pit and counterweight flying system. It boasts a lighting rig of LED fixtures and an additional stock of lighting available to hire.
The theatre is licensed for public performances with excellent technical facilities and with the hire you can receive support from our experienced Britten Theatre technicians and RCM Studios team. The theatre also benefits from an orchestra pit for 55 musicians, a Steinway grand piano, two dressing rooms, a bar and The Ruth West Foyer. Seating up to 390, the theatre is an excellent venue for lectures, presentations and conferences.
