Apollo Victoria

Opened as a Cinema in 1930 the now 'Apollo Victoria' is a 2,304 capacity theatrical venue brimming with art deco design. In the era where talking pictures were influencing the creation of 'super' cinemas, Provincial Cinematograph Theatres (PCT) invited Ernest Walmsley Lewis to submit plans to build such a cinema a stone’s throw away from Victoria Station. On 15th October 1930 the New Victoria opened with the film Old English and a stage show called Hoop-La, years of highs and lows followed. The Apollo Victoria has now been home to Wicked: The Musical for 10 years.
