Connecting Worlds is the guiding vision of Tara Theatre for audiences and artists
Tara is a registered arts charity (no: 295547) that punches well above its weight, thanks to the generous support of individuals, sponsors, trusts and foundations.
Opened in September 2016 by Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, Tara Theatre is the country’s first dedicated multicultural theatre. Under the leadership of Founder and Artistic Director, Jatinder Verma MBE, our award-winning building acts as a cradle for Tara’s distinctive “Binglish” sensibility - a sensibility that fuses European and Asian theatrical approaches to reflect modern Britain.
By enabling us to create new productions, develop new talent and serve our audiences in London and nationwide, our supporters make a vital contribution to our ability to meet our vision. Such support also allows us to offer the highest quality plays and performances at affordable ticket prices. However you choose to support us, it will have a significant impact.
