theatre of wine - tufnell park
Born in St.Ives in Cornwall in a flat on the Fore St, a stone's throw from the
ocean, Daniel worked in theatre, film and TV for 10 years, most notably at the
ground-breaking Citizens Theatre in Glasgow. In July 2002 he created Theatre of
Wine with Jonathan Warren, David Simmonds and a lot of helpers. The name came
about through the fusion of two loves - theatre and wine - embodied in antiquity
in a single entity, the god Dionysus. The shops are a stage for our wines, and
at our weekly tastings we let these characters interact and reveal their
personalities. While the team has changed, the philosophy is the same: to give a
stage to wines that have something interesting to say.
