"A Groundbreaking Theater If you've seen thebig West End shows and you’re looking for something a bit more intimate, nothing beats this classy venue in sophisticated Islington. Small in size, the Almeida still packs a huge punch, constantly winning awards for its groundbreaking contributions to British theater. With star billing like Andrew Scott as Hamlet and Matt Smith in American Psycho , and vital new writing like Lucy Kirkwood’s Chimerica or Mike Bartlett’s King Charles III , this place is always a hot ticket — and a crammed calendar of talks, masterclasses, and workshops makes it a theatrical mecca even before the house lights go down."
