The theatre opened in 1897 as the Queen's Opera House, a reconstruction of the former Crouch End Athenaeum. It later became the Crouch End Hippodrome and subsequently a cinema. It was damaged by bombing during the Second World War and subsequently demolished apart from the front, which still stands in Topsfield Parade.[1][2]
