Soho Theatre Live comes to Amazon Prime

Soho Theatre Live comes to Amazon Prime

At a time where we’re missing live performances more than ever, the show must go on(line)!

By Laura Rutkowski, Staff Writer

Soho Theatre Live launches on Amazon Prime Video on Thursday 3 December with 11 existing comedy films from Soho Theatre On Demand. Series 2 and 3 will each feature ten new shows, which will be filmed and broadcast in 2021.

 

Soho Theatre, which opened 20 years ago, has welcomed award-winning comedians to its Dean Street home and at the Edinburgh Fringe. With the venue’s temporary closure due to the pandemic, it relaunched its online platform, Soho Theatre On Demand, in spring 2020.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge and the National Theatre’s live recording of the Fleabag play at Soho Theatre was a huge hit. The hilarious one-woman show allowed viewers to donate what they could, with proceeds going towards charities including the National Emergencies Trust, NHS Charities Together and Acting for Others.
