Biographical History
The Arts Theatre opened in 1927 and operated as an eating and drinking club, thus deliberately falling outside the censorship restrictions. It put on notable productions and ground-breaking works, as well as playing host to foreign companies.
In the early 1960s the Royal Shakespeare Company resided at the theatre with a daring experimental season of plays. In 1967 the Arts Theatre became home to Caryl Jenner's Unicorn Theatre for Children, providing 8 shows a year of its own devising and letting to other foreign children's companies as well.
