"Now I know where my little corner
of Boxpark is,
I would
still rather a pint and sandwich from the Warehouse
Theatre’s bar though. I remain in mourning for its loss".
Rob Preston in 'Croydon Citizen' 24/11/16
"They
lied about the Warehouse –
closed it down
and nothing more was ever done to help it find
a new and better home".
The
Croydon Citizen - Liz Sheppard Jones 22/11/17:
Recreation: When will the Warehouse Theatre find its rightful new home?
We need to maintain and restore the range of local amenities for which Croydon is justly renowned -
