Support our transformational venues and artist opportunities.


“A vital pillar of the theatrical ecosystem” – Lidless Theatre


Across our venues we run a year-round artistic programme, with performances, events, development opportunities, residencies, workshops, classes and more.

All of our activity is created with affordability and access in mind.

Since 2008, we have created innovative relationships with landlords and passed on the benefits to some of the UK’s most exciting emerging artists.

Today, we receive no regular public funding and less than 10% of Theatre Deli’s income comes from donations or grants. Nevertheless our activity reaches 10,000s of people every year and our spaces and opportunities provide game-changing benefit throughout the performing arts sector.
