Bookshop
The shop is a friendly place to visit and browse. Have a read of your purchases whilst enjoying a coffee in our Bar & Kitchen.
For nearly two hundred years, Samuel French has been a haven for theatre lovers and theatre makers in London, stocking a huge range of plays and theatre books, and offering expert advice. The much loved bookshop in Fitzroy Street, London closed in April 2017 and was re-established in one of the most important centres of new writing in British theatre.
Simon, the shop manager from the store on Fitzroy Street for thirty years, is on hand to help and answer questions.
We look forward to welcoming customers and friends from the old bookshop, and introducing many more theatre-goers to the Samuel French team.
The bookshop is now located on the lower ground floor of the Royal Court Theatre (Stalls level) just before the stairs to enter the Bar & Kitchen.

Our standard opening hours are 11.30am–7.45pm, Monday to Saturday / 11.30am to 5.30pm on non-show days (closed on Bank Holidays). PLEASE NOTE the bookshop will be closed 29th August.
