Why locals recommend it
Beneath the old arches under Waterloo Station is an arts space and theatre venue that puts on seriously cool kiddie activities. It’s a subterranean adventure, with red lighting, unusual displays, and tunnels for children to explore. There’s always something good showing, like great comedy for kids or an unusual retelling of Alice in Wonderland. Even if there’s no specific event, just getting there is special. You feel like you’re entering the underbelly of Waterloo, via a door that’s covered in some of the city’s best graffiti.

Tips from locals
Graffitied alternative & Gothic performance & arts space in converted railway arches & tunnels. The Vaults is a multi-disciplinary space located in the underground world of Waterloo station . Loads of arts and performances :)
Some great theatre here located at an interesting location under Waterloo Station. A lot of theatre starts here before moving onto the West End. And it's a 15 minute walk away.
Alternative theatre showcasing eclectic and varied performance and arts. Situated in converted railway arches to add to the atmosphere.
Cavernous subterranean tunnels under Waterloo station provide the backdrop for some of London's most imaginative theatrical experiences. I caught an excellent interactive production of Alice's Adventures Underground there, based on Lewis Carroll's classic kid's book.
