Based in the heart of Deptford, the Albany is a performing arts centre with a history stretching back to the nineteenth century. Over the last few years, it has emerged as a new type of arts venue, very much driven by the cultural diversity and creative mix of South East London. Involving people, through participation and partnerships, is central to its work and is essential to the delivery of its vision.

Situé au cœur de Deptford, The Albany est un centre dédié aux arts de la scène, dont l'histoire remonte au 19ème siècle. Depuis quelques années, il se positionne comme un nouveau type d’espace artistique, guidé par la diversité culturelle et le mélange créatif du sud-est de Londres. L’engagement des publics, à travers la participation et les partenariats, est au cœur de son travail et est essentiel à l’accomplissement de sa vision.
