Roderick Ham

Roderick Thomas Mathieson Ham (September 1925 – 19 January 2017) was a British architect, principally of theatres, who often worked with George Finch.

[3] When he was demobbed in 1947, Ham joined the Architectural Association to start his studies as an architect, where he would return later in his career to teach.

[2] His early work included alterations to the Festival theatre in Battersea Park and additions to the Royal Court.

His first major project was designing, with George Finch, the Thorndike Theatre in Leatherhead within the shell of the disused 1930s Crescent Cinema, which opened in 1969.

[2] With Peter Moro, he produced a series of information sheets on aspects of theatre design that were published by the Architects' Journal.
