Dragon Hall Covent Garden Trust

Hire a room in the heart of Covent Garden on Stukeley Street, close to both Covent Garden and Holborn tube stations.

We have 4 rooms available for hire, 3 at Dragon Hall and 1 just round the corner in Newton Street. Both buildings are accessible with no-step entrances, adapted toilets and lifts.

The Main Hall is fitted with an induction loop. Guide and Hearing Dogs are welcome. We encourage any potential users to make contact in advance so we can ensure your needs are met.

Located in central London just in between Covent Garden and Holborn, great for the West End and the theatres. The rooms are often used for rehearsals and auditions, workshops, away days, conferences and meetings.

A small group of actor/workshop leaders will collect the stories and construct them into a short piece of theatre performed by the actors/workshop leaders.

A performance will be given for all involved to hear their stories and share them with family, friends and neighbours at the Tristan Bates Theatre at the Actors Centre in Covent Garden.

It is hoped that this pilot project will be the first phase of an extended project which will develop over 2010 – 2012.

We will be gathering stories through visiting tea dances in October and November, culminating in an informal performance on December 15th, 2009. The project will develop as part of Camden’s Hidden Histories project.

The project will particularly focus on older people to help preserve the history of the local community through the words of those who have lived and experienced it.
