The Critics' Circle

The Critics' Circle logo

The Critics' Circle is the national professional body of British critics for books, drama, film, music, dance, visual arts and architecture. It was established in 1913 as a successor to the defunct Society of Dramatic Critics, formed in 1906.[1] The association is analogous to the 1974 American Theatre Critics Association, but broader in scope.
