Why is London really getting more theatres?
Partly that's what lies behind the boom in London theatre construction.
"But the buildings are 97% recyclable," Baker points out."They're built to a high spec and they have great facilities for professionals and for the public. But whether it's after 18 months or five years we can move the building elsewhere. That's what happened at King's Cross where all this started." "Transport is always crucial: our two current sites in London have great links to rail and the Tube. But outside London there might be places where people would be happy to drive for half an hour or even more to get there.
"I think when you open a new venue like this in the middle of Soho you're dealing inevitably with a whole variety of audiences. We have a great new bar and a restaurant to tempt people in: I think increasingly people want the theatre building to be an event in itself."
