Arts hub for UEL students
Your venue, your story
As a UEL student you will have full access to a brand new arts venue in Stratford’s up-and-coming cultural quarter, next door to our University Square Stratford campus. The new venue is run by UEL in collaboration with Newham Council, and will feature a fully-equipped 310-seat auditorium, dance studio, cafe and much more…
Take the stage
For students on our performing arts courses, including acting, dance and music performance, the Arts Venue gives you the opportunity to showcase your work to audiences on a professional stage. Between hosting student productions, the Venue will act as a fully-operational theatre featuring world-class productions by a diverse mix of artists.
Make a difference
The Venue will be a space where UEL students come together with the wider community and young people from Newham to share knowledge and skills. With the Stratford Youth Zone also located in the building, this is a unique opportunity to make a difference through your creative practice.
Collaborate and connect
Work is now underway on a major refurbishment which will transform the venue into a modern, welcoming space, including a brand new cafe - an ideal place for creatives to meet up, socialise and collaborate.
Performing Arts
Our expertise and our well-equipped USS campus will help you develop your creative potential in the world of music, dance, theatre and performance.
