About the venue

The Lilian Baylis Theatre is a purpose built studio theatre housed within the complex at Sadler's Wells.

With retractable seating available for 200, this space provides event organisers with an intimate and versatile venue suitable for conferences, product launches, awards ceremonies and seminars. As a fully working theatre the space also lends itself perfectly to smaller performances of dance, opera or drama. The hire of the theatre includes three backstage rooms, which can be used as professional dressing rooms, or as an organiser's office and speakers retiring rooms. The venue is fully accessible for people with physical and sensory disabilities. The theatre accommodates 200 seated theatre style in raked seating, whilst also providing a presentation area in front of the audience of 15m x 9m, thereby giving ample room for back projection. The seating retracts fully to create a flat floor space for board room or cabaret-style meetings. As a self contained area the Lilian Baylis theatre is perfect for evening receptions and for themed dinner parties. Seating for such events is to a maximum of 160 people on round tables of 10, or 100 for dinner dances. Alternatively, as a reception style space for up to 350. Outside the theatre are two convenient areas for use as registration and the nearby Stage door café provides refreshment and light snacks which can be purchased throughout the day. Garden Court This light and airy space gives an additional area in which to serve reception drinks prior to any evening event and can also be used for pre and post show parties around a performance or evening meeting. Technical Support There is an on-site technician for the Lilian Baylis theatre included in the hire fee, to ensure events run smoothly and professionally.
