Troubadour Theatres and Enfield Council strike a new deal for the largest studio complex inside the North Circular. Five purpose built sound stages will be built across two phases, the first phase being ready in Spring 2021.
Enfield Council has agreed to invest nearly £3m into the project to facilitate the construction and purchase of these film studios. Rent paid by Troubadour Theatres will pay for the development over the coming years of operation.
A council report last autumn said: “The studios…will transform an extremely inhospitable corner of the borough, currently blighted by fly-tipping, trespass and unsightly heavy-duty security infrastructure into an attractive development with new buildings, green corridors and clean landscaping. The intervention will change what is currently a dangerous, unhealthy, polluted and waste strewn environment into one which will stimulate canal-side activity and exploration of the area.”
Charlie Parsons backed the team behind Troubadour Theatres – Oliver Royds and Tristan Baker. The team previously set up Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre in 2019 at the Old Fountain Studios in west London.
