Some famous quotes about the Theatre from the archives...
‘Filthy and disgusting.’
– an instant review from a German student, according to a 1972 West London Observer article covering the Bush’s first production, The Collector
‘Above an Irish pub with all the horrors that entails, ladies would be advised to go there in a warm pair of trousers.’
– from an Evening Standard review of Tina Brown’s Under the Bamboo Tree, 1973
‘In the tiny Bush Theatre in 1974 where I first saw Flowers sitting more or less next to David Bowie the show seemed to herald a new era; I timorously ventured on this page that this sort of thing might catch on.’
– Michael Coveney in the Financial Times
