All London's live music

The Criterion is one of the few independent theatres in London’s West End.

Managed by The Criterion Theatre Trust, all profits generated from our theatre operations are put back into the running and care of this unique historic venue. The work includes restoring the Grade II* listed theatre, making the venue more environmentally sustainable and fit to present modern theatre to modern audiences, encouraging increased engagement in the arts through community and education projects, and supporting the development of emerging talent through created opportunities on the Cri stage.
