   This venue is absolutely worth a visit. Only a few stops from central London, go and experience the magic of 'small' theatre. I have seen so many shows here (all amazing !) and the recent Dracapella is certainly no exception. You must get this one on your Christmas list and make the trip, it will be worth it ! The staff are super friendly, there is a real local community vibe about the place and all the casts and crew always seem so passionate about what they're creating and it really is magical ! GO GO GO !

   Quite close to Finsbury Park underground station. Staff welcoming. Credit Cards only, sadly. Two auditoriums the main - 200, seats 200. The smaller is Park 90 - seats 90 and the set can change according to the play. Main: Show. 23.5 hours. A play about the effects of sexual contact between teachers and students, the age of consent and the effects on relationships. A must see play. Main: Cyrano. Many will be familiar with Steve Martin and Daryl Hannah in Roxanne. Essentially the same story must recast and interpreted to a queer and gay focus. I think an unnecessary attention focus. The story as retold didn't need the presentation. Excellent cast and performance. Very worthwhile to see. Do see if you can. 10/10. Park 90: The Jab. An excellent play around the lived experience of a couple facing COVID. Park 90: Outpatient by Harriet Madeley a moving, humorous, tearful and hopeful story of the impact of a life impacting health crisis. A must see. Main: Farewell Mister Haffaman, reflecting the nazi occupation of Paris, will a staff member hide his Jewish boss and what would be the price. An excellent cast including Jennifer Kirby and Micheal Fox and the title Mister Haffman Alex Waldmann. Park 90: One Day When We Were Young follows the intertwined but seperate lives of Violet (Cassie Bradley) and Leonard (Barney White) from the war to the new millennium. Bittersweet, but essential. Main: The Gathered Leaves without giving the game away, is a moving and challenging story of family reunion looking at illness and life conditions across generations. Each cast member from most familiar to new talent, fully in habit their roles leading to a moving and thought provoking performance. One should see it. Park 90: Kindling, a comedy that explores life through the lens of a group of women whose only link is the woman who died. a play of revelation, humour, sadness and hoped for deeper friendship. definitely see. Park 90: Fox is a single handed play about a mother with a newborn baby. And over an hour several days elapse by use of steg lights and the movement in and around the dolls house. A simplistic set of cot, chair, and the dolls house. The writer Katie Louisa Morgan who also performs the paly weaves through the experience of motherhood and earlier loss, the miracle of life and the default setting of babies to bring out protection from others and the potential risks of loneliness whilst the work turns on from the new mother potentially leading to depression and an odd fascination with a homeless man who takes up residence on the front wall. I attended the Bring your Baby performance, which actually enhanced the sense of the play – I think. I would recommend.

   What a wonderful little theatre . A great venue. Really friendly staff. Relaxed and charming. Intimate auditorium. The performance I went to , 'My Cosmic Dust' was great adding to the positive view. Lovely little bar/cafe/pizza hub. Short walk to buses and tube. This place deserves to be supported as much as possible. What an asset.

   Enjoyable experience at Park Theatre overall. We went to see Winner’s Curse, which was an enjoyable, funny and insightful play. Seating was comfortable, and contributed to intimate atmosphere (we were on upper tier seating). Staff were friendly and ticket-checks were prompt and efficient. Decent selection of snacks and drinks available, including premium nuts and ice creams. Price was high for these given captive audience but okay for London and venue. An enjoyable experience overall!

   A very small and intimate theatre, located 50 metres from Finsbury Park Station. The stage is basically in the centre and two tiers of seating. The theatre has a small bar and cafe on entry. There are a few restaurants near the theatre, Lebanese, Italian, Japanese, and the usual Starbucks and Kabab Restaurant.

   The Park Theatre has two performance spaces. We were here watching A Single man. Both theatres are compact. The theatres are on multiple floors with many steps. There is a lift to take you to all floors. The bar area gets crowded when there are two shows running. The box office is also located in the bar area. There is a bar and cafe with Pizza oven. There are lots of cafes and restaurants near by. Intimate theatre spaces with wide choice of plays.

   Modern but intimate theatre close to Finsbury Park tube station and main East Coast Railway line. Split over 2 floors for bars and eating with lift access to the upper floor. We saw the play Rose with Maureen Lipman and it was excellent. Plenty of places to eat nearby and well located. Run by mainly volunteers who were really friendly.
