NOW OPEN! Welcome back to Old Diorama
Founded as a squat in the old Diorama building by Regent's Park in the 1970s, and incorporated as a charity in 1981, Diorama Arts Centre has occupied several buildings and interim spaces around the West Euston area since then.
Since 2013, Old Diorama Arts Centre's permanent home is a purpose-built complex in the Regent's Place campus and our studios are home to a busy schedule of rehearsals, workshops, readings, castings, film and photo shoots, and events.
ODAC is a creation centre: a shared home for the live arts, creative industries and local community to make. We have spaces for development, rather than presentation and we're beginning a journey towards a renewed focus on interdisciplinary live work, across and between form and genre.
Our studios and spaces are available to hire.
