The Lost Library of Leake Street at The Glitch

“There are stories in everything. If only you know where to look.”

It’s Christmas Eve and Isla is lost. Wandering through the vaults and tunnels of Waterloo, she is searching for something – a gift for her mother, after a tumultuous year past. But nothing’s quite right. Until she finds a shop. Or, to be more precise, a library. Or, to be more precise still, the Lost Library of Leake Street. 

But this isn’t like any library you’ve seen before. Sure, it’s full of stories. But here, the stories aren’t found in pages or on tape. The stories come from things. Lost, discarded things. Things that were once treasured by a Londoner, now lying forgotten. Or almost forgotten.

Step into The Lost Library of Leake Street with Isla, and join her on a whirlwind journey as she explores all the stories that London has to offer, and learns how connection can be found in the most unlikely of places. 

A show for people of all ages, you'll experience a truly unique Christmas show about family, loss, magic, and the stories that bind us all together. 

This Christmas, VAULT Creative Arts will be completely transforming their lower-ground floor venue at The Glitch into a junk-shop, a repository, or, as some know it, The Lost Library of Leake Street. Audiences will be invited into the library to experience a truly unique, magical Christmas show for all ages.
