Everyman Theatre (London, England).
The Everyman Theatre was founded by Norman Macdermott in 1920 as a non-commercial, experimental playhouse which showcased the plays of Bernard Shaw. It mounted Noel Coward's first successful work, The Vortex, in 1924 and introduced many foreign dramatists to the English stage including Eugene O'Neill, Henrik Ibsen and Luigi Pirandello. In the 1930s it was used by various small companies and in 1947 it was converted to a cinema specializing in non-commercial and foreign film.
