From the beginning of April 2025 until early 2026, Theatre Centre’s home has become a hub for professional creatives thanks to a partnership between Creative Crawley and Theatre Centre funded by Arts Council England and Crawley Borough Council via the Shared Prosperity Fund.
The space has been transformed into the West Green Studios with 5 resident artists including an architect and visual artist, fashion designers, a producer and theatre makers in situ; the building also has a one large studio, one small studio and hot desks available to hire by other creative professionals.
The spaces are ideal for rehearsals, studio makes, hot desking for creatives, read-throughs and location shoots. Spaces are not available to hire for recurring weekly activities but can be hired in ½ day, day long and week long + blocks.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Can we book a space for a regular weekly dance workshop?
A: No, the space is only available for one off events, rehearsals or workshops. If we book in regular events, it reduces the availability for rehearsals or other events.
Q: Do we have to be a creative professional to hire the space?
A: Yes, this creative makerspace is for those either studying to enter the creative industries or working already. If you are not a creative professional, you could hire a space at Unit 79/80 County Mall. Click HERE for more information
Q: I’m not based in Crawley, can I still hire the space?
A: Yes. If you are based in Crawley, West Sussex or Surrey there are special rates but anyone can hire the space.
Q: Can we hire the space outside of office opening hours?
A: This is possible but events or activities post 5.30pm will be subject to extra charges.
