Overview

The glasshouse had been a difficult area to keep active with exhibitions, but in 1987, two women re-imagined the idea of roller skating within the space. A purpose built skating rink was laid and Roller City began. It has been comprehensively updated all through the years and is the only purpose-built roller rink in Hertfordshire. It is also a venue for fitness and dance classes.

Cinema was not initially envisaged at the Campus West Theatre, it was a late amendment and required the introduction a massive 31 feet white screen which is flown out when not needed.

Two 35mm Cinemecanica Victoria 4 projectors and a 16mm gauge Fumeo machine were installed by the British Film Institute chief engineer Mr Charles Beddow MBE which were upgraded in 2002 to Victoria 5 projectors.

Garden City Cinema as it was known, was one of the last to run films on 35mm projectors and digital projection arrived in the summer of 2012. The Hawthorne Theatre, became known as Screen 3, a Barco 19B 2K digital projector was installed. There still remains a working film projector in the projection room.

Hawthorne Theatre, as it was known, has seen stage appearances by Kenneth Williams and Nicholas Parsons, but is now home to our hugely popular professional pantomime and our unique ‘blue’ pantomime, strictly for adults only! The theatre is hired out to dance schools, local performance groups and has been used by Radio 4 to record in front of a live audience.

To maximize the success of digital projection, including satellite broadcast of live stage events from theatre to opera, ballet and broadcasts from all over the world, two new contemporary cinema auditoria were opened in September 2014.

A bright and welcoming soft play centre with three distinctive age zones from 0-8, was installed and opened as Soft Play City.

An all-day food and drink menu is served in our comfortable lounge and bar, with artwork on the walls from the New Maynard Gallery. Light, airy and spacious, Humphrey's lounge overlooks the leafy Campus, opposite John Lewis. With cosy and inviting sofas and boasting an attractive outdoor balcony, Humphrey's offers a warm welcome. It’s the perfect place to meet with friends and relax, or to keep the family refreshed before the cinema or after a twirl around our roller rink. 

With easy parking and free WiFi, Humphrey’s is an ideal location for informal business meetings and freelance workers – and for students in need of a change of scene.
