The Finborough Theatre
The Finborough Theatre - led by Artistic Director Neil McPherson - presents multi-award-winning New Writing from the UK and overseas, particularly from the USA, Eire, Canada and Australia; Music Theatre; as well as rediscoveries of unjustly neglected work from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
“A disproportionately valuable component of the London theatre ecology. Its programme combines new writing and revivals, in selections intelligent and audacious."
Ian Shuttleworth, Financial Times
"Few leading fringe theatres have walked off with so many awards or promoted such a rich variety of writers as the Finborough"
Jeremy Malies, Plays International
"The superlative artistic direction of Neil McPherson.”
Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph
“The tiny Finborough Theatre in Earls Court is one of the most stimulating venues in London, fielding a programme that is a bold mix of trenchant, politically thought-provoking new drama and shrewdly chosen revivals of neglected works from the past.”
Paul Taylor, The Independent
"Earl’s Court rather than the South Bank seems the place to find the internationally-minded repertory due from a national theatre company." Timothy Ramsden, Reviewsgate.com
“Neil McPherson is one to watch. Since he took over the running of the Finborough Theatre in 1999, the young Scotsman has transformed this small room above an Earl's Court pub into a blazing beacon of intelligent endeavour, nurturing new writers while finding and reviving neglected curiosities from home and abroad”
