This cultural centre in the heart of Croydon opened in the Clocktower in 1993. This is where to get your arts fix with theatre, music, dance and art. Plays range from A Clockwork Orange to Shakespeare; the theatre also plays host to ballets and live musical performances. If none of the planned events take your fancy it’s worth a visit just to have a look at the building, the beautiful Braithwaite Hall, which opened as a library is 1896, has a Grade II listed interior, unsurprising once you’ve admired its stained glass windows and beamed roof 43 feet above the ground. If you’re looking for somewhere fancy to host your next birthday party this could be it, alternatively the more modest Clocktower Court and a couple of workshop spaces are also available for hire and are equipped with audio visual equipment. The foyer is often taken up by local artist exhibitions and there is free live jazz every Thursday lunchtime on the café terrace. While you’re here, don’t forget to visit Croydon Museum on the first floor to expand your local knowledge.
