Please browse the rest of our site if you have the time and we will see you soon.

We are based in an old Victorian public house that opened in 1886 on the site of the Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens; immortalised as the ‘Vanity Fair’ in Thackeray’s eponymous novel.

We serve some of the best loose leaf teas available, proper sandwiches and homemade cakes; not to mention the best full English breakfast in London. Our teas have individual subtle flavours which would be overpowered by the instant, coarse, hit of coffee, so we do not sell it.

We make our own marmalade and jams, all for sale by the jar and all our teas can be bought by the ounce online (to view our range click here). Our meat comes from our local butcher and our fruit and vegetables from the local market gardens around us.

We are trying to be different. We will not hurry you. If you visit us on your lunch break, then have one, you will be more productive in the afternoon. If you want to have a meeting, we will not disturb you. If you are ‘working from home’, we have wifi. If you have children, we have highchairs, a chest of toys, and milkshakes. We always have the daily papers, so please, relax, and share in what we are trying to create, take a load off, and have a cuppa.

Monday Theatre School - Anton Chekhov Acting Workshops

  • Tea House Theatre 139 Vauxhall Walk London, SE11 5HL United Kingdom (map)

Dear Actors, 

Monday Theatre School - Anton Chekhov

A seminal figure in the birth of Modernism.

A study of the "submerged life of the text".

ALL LEVELS WELCOME.

No experience needed.

We are inviting you to the series of three consecutive workshops based on the works of celebrated playwright Anton Chekhov. We will be looking at his lesser known (but equally brilliant) works and using his text as exercise material.

Chekhov is known mostly as a writer, however due to the fact of his involvement with late nineteenth century most progressive theatre practitioners and movements, and especially Stanislavsky and Moscow Arts Theatre, he can be easily considered a theatre practitioner (not only a playwright). His plays, due to their perfect structure and well-drawn characters present a wonderful opportunity for any beginner to master their performing skills.

Classes will include speech and movement exercises, improvisation and of course imagination building exercises and games.


Classes will be held from 7pm.
Limited spaces
Mondays 11th, 18th and 25th July

1 Session £20
Full Course of 3 Sessions £50
