About
The Everyman, Hampstead is a cinema and former theatre in Holly Bush Vale, Hampstead, London. It is the original site of the Everyman Cinemas group.
The house opened as the Everyman Theatre in 1920, under the management of Norman MacDermott, who aimed to establish a repertory company comparable to celebrated companies in Birmingham and Dublin. He ran it until 1926, presenting classic and modern plays, but financial problems obliged him to resign. The building was then taken by other managements and continued as a theatre until 1933; it then became a cinema and apart from closure during part of the Second World War it has remained as such.
