About Us

The King's Head continues to be a hotbed of new and exciting creative talent after more than 35 years in the business. In 2005, founder Dan Crawford's partner and long-serving associate artistic director, Stephanie Sinclaire, took the helm as Creative Director.

The King's Head Theatre's core values are based on the nurturing and mentoring of talented writers, actors, directors and producers. Over the past four decades the King's Head has contributed to or showcased the successful careers of Victoria Wood, Joanna Lumley, Sir Anthony Sher, Alan Rickman, Sir Tom Stoppard, Hugh Grant, Rupert Graves, Prunella Scales, Steven Berkoff, Anita Dobson, Mike Figgis, Sam West, Shane Richie, Maureen Lipman, Mel Smith, Corin Redgrave, Celia Imrie and James Jagger. The King's Head has transferred 37 shows to the West End, more than any other Off West End theatre.

Our Artistic Vision
To produce innovative theatre, sometimes controversial, always entertaining. To maintain exceptionally high production values and to allow both sides of a debate to be heard onstage. To produce a heady combination of classic and contemporary theatre, musicals and straight theatre, high art and earthy entertainment .
