Sister to the Bridge Theatre in London Bridge but a very different prospect, the Lightroom capitalises on the current craze for projection-based work by creating what is effectively a projection-based art gallery. A collaboration between Bridge boss Nicholas Hytner’s London Theatre Company and the design studio 59 Productions, it’s effectively a single gigantic gallery space with extremely sophisticated projection capability and sound design.
As of late December 2023 it has hosted two shows: a David Hockney exhibition (‘Bigger & Closer’) that resembles a more sophisticated version of the touring Van Gough exhibits that are to be found all over the world now, and ‘The Moonwalkers’, essentially a documentary.
Lightroom is a new home for spectacular artist-led shows
Launching our programme with a collaboration with David Hockney, we invite the world’s leading creative minds to use our vast space and revolutionary technology to create something completely new.
Lightroom is located in King’s Cross on Lewis Cubitt Square, adjacent to Coal Drops Yard and Central St Martin’s. The innovative showspace was designed by 59 Productions in close collaboration with Haworth Tompkins, who have designed the venue as a sister space to the award-winning Bridge Theatre. Along with a generous Foyer and gift shop, the space also contains a bar and seating area run by St John.
Lightroom is a joint venture between 59 Productions and London Theatre Company. Lightroom’s CEO is Richard Slaney and its executive chair is Nick Starr, co-founder of London Theatre Company. Lightroom is backed by a group of investors led by Sir Leonard Blavatnik who is represented by Danny Cohen, President of Access Entertainment; and Mike Sherwood, former co-CEO of Goldman Sachs Internation
Been there, done that? Think again, my friend.
