Stanley Halls

About Stanley Halls

Stanley Halls is a Grade II listed arts venue at Norwood Junction.

A fascinating complex of unique buildings built in 1904-11. The venue is now used for a wide range of art, music, performance and community events.

Stanley Halls Description

Our vision

Stanley Halls is where South Norwood celebrates arts and community.

Our mission statement

We are SPI, a charity established by the local community to re- ‐ open, manage, improve and restore Stanley Halls. We will offer spaces for people to enjoy a varied programme of arts, leisure, education, information and celebration.

To do this we will seek help and funding to revive this heritage building so a wider audience can access it. Inventor and philanthropist William Stanley's 1903 vision for his halls still stands: "Justice, Liberty and Science". Today we think this means offering opportunity, innovation and participation. South Norwood needs this much-loved heritage building as its focal point. SPI will enable our community to use, improve, preserve and love Stanley Halls now and for future generations.

A lonely, aging movie star named Bob Harris (Bill Murray) and a conflicted newlywed, Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson), meet in Tokyo. Bob is there to film a Japanese whiskey
commercial; Charlotte is accompanying her celebrity-photographer husband. Strangers in a foreign land, the two find escape, distraction and understanding amidst the bright Tokyo lights after a chance meeting in the quiet lull of the hotel bar. They form a bond that is as unlikely as it is heartfelt and mean...ingful.

What a lovely venue with incredibly helpful, polite staff and a great little coffee shop.

What a lovely venue for an intimate folk gig. Friendly staff, great local beer, fantastic sound. I'd love to go again :)

User

Visited for the first time yesterday as it's the new show venue for Phoenix Players and was so impressed - both by the building which is beautiful and by the friendly, welcoming staff. Keep up the good work guys! And yes, I am available for marketing purposes, David... haha.

User

The Halls are truly majestic and the staff help to bring that alive! We've been for parties and the family cinema and we look forward to seeing what they've got up their sleeves :-)

User

Stanley Halls: what an excellent ceilidh venue; wonderful sound, great lighting, and a brilliant floor. It would be improved by having more dancers, so go on, find out when the next ceilidh's on, and give it a try!

User

Stanley Halls is such an amazing space and the craft beer selection is great.

I came for Aelfa Academy of Dramatic Arts' Cabaret Night on 28 March, which was so much fun! The students of Stanley Halls resident drama school are very talented. I highly recommend their shows to everyone.

User

I am so impressed by the set up the friendliness, organisation and community feel. The theatre production itself was so fabulous will definately be returning to as many events as I can and proud to be a Trail Blazer member

Great venue full of glitter and gold from the cinema era! They even have the old paper ticket!

User

Great venue and great comedy at this lovely place. We spent a very happy Saturday afternoon listening to comedy acts and drinking and eating. Recommend to everyone!

User

Excellent venue. Got to see three excellent acts at 'The Streets' festival and I still can't believe it was FREE. Outstanding �

User

Beautiful building made it a perfect place for a beer festival.

User

Am afraid that this lovely coffee place will be discovered and get too popular - at the moment though not cheap, is certainly good value and the atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable. Young families are catered for and the food is very good.
