Entertainment architecture and design company Stufish has launched The Vertical Theatre, a “freestanding tourable structure” that will allow socially distanced audiences to enjoy live performances again.
So far, the coronavirus pandemic has wrought havoc on the performing arts: the Society of London Theatre and UK Theatre estimated losses for the sector were around £630 million just three months into the crisis. As the country approaches the one-year anniversary of its first COVID case, this number looks to be significantly higher.
The Vertical Theatre has been designed by Stufish with the intention of “future-proofing” the industry. In the short term, it aims to provide a Covid-safe space for performances happening amid the pandemic. In the long-term, it could be a more environmentally friendly way of touring productions around the country, Stufish claims.

A new large-scale venue has been unveiled, with hopes for it to be in use by the end of the year.
Allowing audiences to sit in groups of between four and 12 people (to allow for social distancing where necessary), the space is hoping to be used for theatre, circus, comedy, music and more. The Vertical Theatre is free-standing and tourable, meaning it can pop-up in locations across the country.
The venue is currently in discussions with partners and is advising audiences to watch-this-space.
