Route 27: Voices

Dsc08022 - route 27 credit olivia spencer

As we make a start at our new home in Camden, we invite you and the thousands of audience members and artists who have supported the Gate over the last 42 years to reflect on our history and say farewell to our first home on Pembridge Road in Notting Hill.

Step into our beloved auditorium as it transforms for the last time into an interactive exhibition space, curated by designer Hazel Low. Featuring a recording booth and listening post, share your memories of the Gate and your hopes for our future. New recorded messages will be added daily.

Your voices. Our memories. Join us one last time in Notting Hill.

Based on an original idea by Gate Theatre's Young Associates.

Send Your Messages

If you are unable to join us at the exhibition and record your message live, we have some other ways you can share your messages:

“If the walls could hear, what would you want to say to them?”

Please tell us your name and your relationship to the gate (audience/set designer/performer/front of house) or you can send it anonymously.

  • Email your voice recording to voices@gatetheatre.co.uk
  • Send a WhatsApp voicenote to 07764 759 730
  • Send us a letter to Gate Theatre, 11 Pembridge Road, Notting Hill, London, W11 3HQ (please note we may have your message read by an actor so we can include it in our audio exhibition)

Hazel Low – Designer
Hazel Low is a performance designer working across theatre, live art and spatial design. They are particularly interested in work that is multidisciplinary, inherently collaborative, and that challenges form.

As well as design for Live Performance, Hazel also took part in the Prayer Workshops led by Rosie Elnile and the Gate Theatre where they conceptualised Myth of Binary and Body, a digital installation exploring how we costume trans bodies, a piece of work they are still developing. Hazel was also Design Associate on NDT Broadgate in 2020, where they helped conceptualise and action the ideals and aesthetics of the space, and were one of Broadgate’s resident designers when it was open.
