The former Tricycle Theatre has renamed itself as the Kiln Theatre, on the principle that it will become a crucible for new plays presumably. The occasion also marks the unveiling of a new season of plays at the venue starting in September.
The rebranding is in a number of newspapers, often illustrated with pictures with Indhu Rubasingham standing in front of the old building with the words "Tricycle Theatre" still on prominent display, but still. The re-opening should add to the health of the local economy.
UPDATE 20.04.18
I see that a number of people have started a petition to decry the new name and demand it go back to the old. The best coverage of this is in the Camden New Journal. Why is it that all advances in community facilities seem to attract this kind of negativity?
