Located in the basement of the theatre, underneath the Bell Stage it is actually still the SLTC Members' Club Bar despite the sign Theatre Bar above the door and a previous attempt to name it the "Clanger Bar". The latter shows the folly of putting naming into a competition.
The bar also contain a traditional brass bell that as well as being able to be rung by moving the clanger manually also can be rung remotely from behind the bar. However, the automatic mechanism rather causing a nice "ding" makes a rather muted "dunk", so more often than not someone rings it manually to call time.
The Members Club was the first part of the centre to come into full use (we were then known as the South London Theatre Centre) and opened to the membership in May 1967. After all those doing the conversion and later rehearsing for the first production had to have somewhere to relax after all their hard work.
