This stage was used predominantly for private parties and events in the 2000s, and in 2021/22 was converted into Hitchcock Mixing Stage 6, as the existing Alfred Hitchcock building was being demolished.
It housed two of the original chandaliers from The Phantom of the Opera (1925) and was the shortest stage on the lot.
