EartH (Evolutionary Arts Hackney) is a dynamic cultural space located on Stoke Newington Road in London's Hackney borough. Housed in a converted 1930s cinema, the venue features two performance spaces: a main hall with a capacity of 1,500 and a more intimate studio. The programming is eclectic, spanning live music from indie to electronic, theatre, dance, comedy, and club nights. The interior retains original Art Deco features like the proscenium arch and decorative plasterwork, blending historic charm with modern sound and lighting systems. The venue also hosts community events, workshops, and exhibitions, making it a hub for local creativity. The bar offers a range of drinks, and there's a small courtyard for pre-show drinks. EartH is known for its inclusive atmosphere and commitment to showcasing emerging artists alongside established names.
