The company, originally called the Tavistock Repertory Company, was formed in 1932 as the resident company of the Tavistock Little Theatre, based at the Mary Ward settlement in London’s Tavistock Place. It moved to the Canonbury Tower in Islington in 1952, becoming known as the Tower Theatre Company. It remained there for 50 years until forced to leave in 2003. The following years on the road saw the company performing in many different London venues such as the Bridewell Theatre, Theatro Technis and Upstairs at the Gatehouse. In 2018, after many years of searching for the perfect venue, the company moved to its new home in Stoke Newington.
