The Old Red Lion Theatre, is a small theatre above a pub close to Angel Tube Station. Whilst the theatre organisation was only founded in 1948, as a theatre club, the Old Red Lion pub is apparently one of the oldest in London, having been built in 1415, but rebuilt in 1899.
The relatively small 60 seater fringe theatre opened properly in 1979 a small studio above the main bar pub's first floor, giving the pub its present name of the Old Red Lion Theatre Pub. The theatre specialises in works by new writers.
