75 Dean Street has long been part of Soho’s creative story. For many years it housed De Lane Lea Studios, one of London’s most influential recording and post-production facilities. Countless musicians, filmmakers and broadcasters passed through its doors, helping to cement Soho’s reputation as a global centre for film, music and media.
Today, 75 Dean Street has entered a new chapter. The building is home to the Museum of Soho and a growing cultural community through All is Joy, providing space for emerging creatives.
For Open House, we have talks on the Saints and Sinners of Soho, West End Musical Theatre, Hedonism and Activism and the award winning short documentary, Our Soho.
Interspersed will be short films from Fealy Films. Angela Fealy is currently pulling together the 12 x 12 project to work with up and coming working class filmmakers with the ambitious aim of helping them to create 12 short films in 2026 with 8 in the can already!
