The Aldwych Theatre

 

Built in 1905, the Aldwych Theatre has housed many famous productions since its opening, including the first performance of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard in England, A Streetcar Named Desire starring Vivien Leigh, Tom Stoppard’s Jumpers, Tom and Clem starring Sir Michael Gabon and Alec McCowen and Amy’s View with Dame Judi Dench.

In the 2000s it became a popular musical theatre venue housing Fame, Dancing in the Streets and Dirty Dancing, which became the longest running show at the Aldwych so far, with five wonderful years at the theatre.

Notable productions in recent years have included Irving Berlin’s Top Hat as well as Wolf Hall and Bring up the Bodies, both based on Hilary Mantel’s award-winning books, and the Olivier Award-winning Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.

The theatre is currently home to the world premiere production of the acclaimed Tina – The Tina Turner Musical, which opened in March 2018.
