Polka Theatre reopens after £8.5m refurbishment

Re-imagining what a dedicated children’s theatre could and should be, the extensive transformation of Polka Theatre in Wimbledon, aims to improve the quality and functionality of the existing space, providing a vibrant hub for the local community and beyond.


The state-of-the-art renovation includes a new early year’s theatre, a new rehearsal and development studio, and a creative learning studio aimed at children with sensory needs, as well as improved access throughout. The building also includes a café, shop, and venue space for private hire, providing economic sustainability to ensure the theatre’s longevity for future years.
