D20921. The Grade II* listed Hackney Empire was opened in 1901 and is a splendid example of a late Victorian theatre. It was originally a music hall and many of the stars of the day performed there.
With the decline in theatre audiences in the post World War II period, it became a TV studio in the 1950s and then became a Bingo Hall in 1963. In 1984, however, it became a theatre once again, but narrowly avoided demolition in 1986.
It closed temporarily for a major refurbishment in 2001, reopening in 2004.
