The Courtyard Theatre Ltd is an established, renowned and much loved London off westend theatre, which also runs its own theatre training company.
We have relocated our theatres and some of its training work to the Grade II listed original Hoxton Library. It has 7,000sq ft of performance areas, gallery and rehearsal space, just a stones throw from Hoxton Square and only 2 mins from Old Street.
Included are a spectacular main house theatre seating 150 and a studio theatre of 80 seats. The new complex also features a huge 18 metre length rehearsal room with 4.5m ceiling height and buckets of natural light as well as a host of smaller spaces. Our new addition to the theatre is the ambient Iambic Bar with a distinctive choice of Italian wines often accompanied with occasional live music.
In addition to these features the Courtyard has paid special attention to the DDA guidelines and has installed full disabled access to all parts of the premises with disabled toilets, lifts and ramps to accommodate all members of society, including the elderly.

What do you get when you cross a dominatrix, and an obsessive-compulsive with a part-time transvestite and Elvis Presley? It’s the Feast of Epiphany and Josie’s 40th Birthday. An Elvis impersonator has been booked as a surprise, but the surprise turns out to be much more than everyone had bargained for when her dead daughter shows up. Outrageous, irreverent, uplifting and very funny, this beautiful Charlotte Jones’ play is a burlesque that conjures the transformation of six very flawed people and their curious lives.
