is the brainchild of Kevin Williams, who for over thirty years has combined a successful performing and writing life with a very prolific producing/promoting career. In the 70's, he was a member of Chichester Festival New Ventures (headed by Tony Robinson), wrote & premiered shows at Perth Theatre, York Theatre Royal, Queens Theatre Hornchurch, Cochrane Theatre, London. In the 80's, with Peter Straker, he was resident producer/director of Alive on Sunday @ Xenon Piccadilly, London, giving opportunity to the likes of Rory Bremner, Jeremy Hardy, Arthur Smith, Tony Slattery, Julian Clary, & a host of others, also writing shows for Newcastle Playhouse, Bloomsbury Theatre, Paramount City, London, & the National Theatre's Educational Department. In the 90's, with John Hole, Kevin was director/producer of WestStage, co-writing/producing for the Royal Opening of the Charles Cryer Theatre, resident producer of the Boulevard Theatre, London, culminating in the transfer of Bob Carlton's 'From a Jack to a King' to the Ambassador's Theatre, London, also writing/directing/producing a host of productions for the Edinburgh Festival and beyond, winning him several Spirit of the Fringe Awards, a Best New Play Award for his play 'The Pigsty', and a Total Theatre Nomination for his multimedia dance/drama 'GO4'. Kevin won a Best New Venue Award for his ClubWEST Edinburgh Festival Venue in 1999 and since then has produced or promoted no less than 30 shows. Everything from Sylvester McCoy in a multi-media Samuel Beckett, to Asian Comedy group The Funjabis, John Otway, Dana Gillespie, Phil Cool, Roddy Maude-Roxby, International Mascall Dance, New Plays by Andrew Dallmeyer, Steve Gooch, & a variety of up and coming talents from both home and abroad. And now...

Kevin has finally found a permanent home for his theatre cocktails. It is one of the most exciting spaces ever, on the site of the old prison cells beneath Arundel Town Hall; a perfect cavernous atmospheric setting for specially devised new works that also has a wonderfully authentic Dickensian whiff about it - ideal for new adaptations of the classic variety:

• is a multi-purpose space, offering an exciting alternative to the somewhat increasing alienating traditions of theatre and the proscenium arch. There seems to be a general aversion to the word and concept known as 'theatre' - so:
• holds workshops, talks, happenings, interactive plays and events, as well as presenting new and old writing in a modern & accessible way, thus revitalising an interest in the live performing arts, in a setting that is utterly unique.
• will concentrate on works from the 19th, 20th, and 21st Century, encouraging new adaptations, new approaches to the older and modern classics, and promoting & producing as much original & newly devised works as possible.
• is awaiting charitable status, the purpose of which shall be to simply nurture and promote live arts within the community, with special attention to the younger generations - our future entertainers, writers, directors, producers, and audience. All this has been made possible through the support of many famous and not so famous folk who are all included on our Roll of Honour.
