Omnibus Clapham

Omnibus is a multi-arts theatre housed in a converted Victorian library overlooking Clapham Common, London SW4, the building is home to a 90-seat studio theatre, a café/bar and two performance and rehearsal spaces. Our work is inspired by the legacy of the 126-year-old library building – a repository of stories and dreams and learning. · Our intention is to take the canon of literature, put it on its feet and reimagine it for a contemporary audience through theatre, spoken word, music, dance and visual art. · Our building and location inspire the work we create, taking the form of site-responsive, promenade and outdoor theatre. · Omnibus is a creative hub for artists to make and test work and develop their practice. Collaboration and cross-art-form working are central to our practice to enable artists to discover new artistic vocabularies. · We aim to build relationships with regional arts companies to whom Omnibus will act as a London host.
