Ondaatje Theatre
The Ondaatje Theatre is an ideal venue for a wide range of conferences, lectures and launches.
Completely refurbished in 2001, care was taken to keep the traditional ambience at the same time as providing comfortable seating, climate control and comprehensive audio visual facilities.
Conferences
The Ondaatje Theatre can host conferences for between 100 and 450 delegates, which can be accommodated on the ground floor.
A very flexible lighting system means smaller numbers never look out of scale to the room.
Lectures
The Ondaatje Theatre is renowned for the lectures and debates which take place most weekday nights.
Accommodating audiences of 750, it is the foremost London venue for presentations on a wide range of subjects.
