John Plews, Artistic Director Upstairs at the Gatehouse

After several years in rep at the Theatre Royal in Windsor, John worked for cruise lines before setting up theatrical production company ‘Ovation’ in 1985 with his partner Katie.  Looking for a ‘home’ they bought a derelict Victorian music hall in 1997 and turned it into the 140 seat fringe theatre known as ‘Upstairs at the Gatehouse’. In this talk John will describe his journey to Highgate.

Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.
