The Arts Theatre, is the smallest, and in many ways the least commercial, in London's West End. It was founded in 1927 as a members only club, allowing circumvention of stage licensing laws.

The now well known director, Peter Hall, directed the English language premiere of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot in 1955 here and then went on to run the venue from 1956 to 1959.

Under the new ownership of JJ Goodman since 2011, it has Artistic Director Mig Kimpton in charge.
