Belltower Cultural Centre
The Belltower Cultural Centre is a venue based in the former Belltower Church in Kempton Park.
Originally built as a church in 1953 for the Reformed Church of Kempton Park, the unique building became one of Kempton Park's landmarks. On 9 October, 1993 the rmed Church of Kempton Park moved to a new and larger church, and the building became a theatre venue, referred to variously as the Bell Tower Theatre, The Bell Tower, or the Belltower Cultural Centre. Today it is used for church services and for theatrical and musical events.
Among the groups to have used it over the years are the Kempton Music and Operetta Society and the Belltower Players (later the Kempton Arts and Theatrical Society or KATS).
