Arcola to build UK's first all-green theatre

The Stage: "North London’s Arcola Theatre is laying plans to create the UK’s first environmentally friendly arts “campus”, in a multimillion-pound project that will see the company’s new home constructed from straw bale.
If given the green light, the company will relocate from its current building on Arcola Street to a nearby 20,000 square feet plot of land next to Dalston Junction station, which is due to open next year.
It will house a total of six performance spaces, including a 300-seat main auditorium in a permanent “eco-venue” made from sustainable materials, a separate theatre complex with four studio spaces and an additional stage called the Launch Pad, for eco-focused and entertainment events."
