KILBURN POSTER

Kilburn is high road character incarnate — a long, busy North West London thoroughfare where Irish pubs, West Indian takeaways, Eastern European grocers, and independent shops create one of the capital's most unapologetically multicultural high streets. The former Gaumont State Cinema, now a church, remains one of London's greatest surviving art-deco buildings — its streamlined facade a monument to the golden age of picture palaces. The Tricycle Theatre's acclaimed programme of new writing serves the local community, and the surrounding streets' Victorian terraces house one of London's most diverse populations per square mile. Kilburn's raw street energy and cultural variety make it compelling Bollywood poster material.
