Builder Gilbert Ash has got the planning green light to build a new Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in South London.
The firm is expected to start building work early next year on the 100,000 sq ft academy, which will be built on a brown field site called Eagle Wharf next to Peckham’s award-winning library.
The part-three-four-and-five-storey building was designed by Carl Turner Architects. Inside, it will have a 200-seat main auditorium, 80-seat studio theatre and rooftop restaurant.
Training facilities include 19 rehearsal studios, two further performance studios, music practice rooms, two TV studios and a radio suite.
Proposed building materials include a golden-brown oxidized steel wrap around the theatre to complement the green copper-clad library.
Facades for the teaching block include brick and wood, reflecting the heritage of the site which was once a canal-side wood warehouse, providing materials to the local furniture making industry.
