The Prince Edward Theatre opened in 1930, and was named after the then Prince of Wales, who went on to become Edward VIII. In 1978, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s new musical, *Evita*, made a star of its leading lady, Elaine Paige. Paige then starred in *Chess* and *Anything Goes*, both at the Prince Edward Theatre.

The building was completely refurbished in 1992. Bernard Delfont and Cameron Mackintosh now owned the theatre, and spent over £3 million on remodelling the auditorium, improving the acoustics and increasing the size of the stage. The new Prince Edward Theatre was unveiled in March 1993 with the opening of *Crazy for You*, a Gershwin musical transferring from Broadway.

Delfont Mackintosh Theatres Ltd. continue to renovate the theatre between productions, making the faceight-yearemplary and one of the most desirable spaces in the West End.

## Prince Edward Theatre Seating Information

The auditorium has three levels – the Stalls, Dress Circle and Grand Circle. In the Stalls, patrons will find excellent legroom throughout, and a gentle rake throughout the auditorium allows for excellent views. 

The Dress Circle does not offer the same level of legroom, but again offers great views. The last five rows will have their view obstructed by the overhang of the, Grand Circle. 

The Dress Circle loges are a unique feature to this theatre — they take on the form of individual, tiered boxes but with a direct view of the stage rather than the side-on view usually associated with box seats. 

The Grand Circle offers excellent sightlines as the seats are fairly steeply raked.

Guys & Dolls

Guys and Dolls Poster

Would luck be a lady for Nicholas Hytner? His much-hyped, immersive production of *[Guys & Dolls](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/25504-guys-and-dolls-tickets)* is set to run for six months at the [Bridge Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/the-bridge-theatre) — a significant gamble. Well, I’m delighted to report that he’s hit the jackpot with this jubilant revival, which somehow manages to be both the most exhilarating version of Frank Loesser’s musical I’ve seen, and also the most nuanced. 

That combination is thanks to an ingenious staging, building on the Bridge’s previous immersive Shakespeare productions. The audience is in the round, partly seated. The standing audience, gathered in the centre, gets thrillingly close to the action, with hydraulic platforms shooting out of the floor all over the place and neon signs descending from the ceiling.

Bunny Christie’s design basically dances more than the cast. It creates boundless staging opportunities for Hytner: whether it’s a central platform for a big Hot Box number, or a large zigzagging path across the auditorium, or several separate mini-stages acting as different locations. It matches the energy of this heightened, Damon Runyon-styled New York City, and allows for lightning-fast scene changes (occasionally the set-up for the next scene cuts into the current one, as ushers nudge the promenading audience around, but that can hopefully be ironed out over the run). 

It creates a dynamic audience experience, far removed from the previous rather tired West End outing for *Guys & Dolls*. There’s pre-show fun (you can get a rakish hat or a pretzel from a street seller), and immersive elements during the show itself: you might be handed a Save-a-Soul Mission leaflet, or a streamer to wave, or have your drink nicked by a cheeky gambler. It all climaxes with a euphoric dance party, with cast members sticking around to boogie and take selfies with fans. It’s an inspired way to make theatre feel relevant and accessible.

But, as with the similarly thoughtful revivals of *Cabaret* and *Oklahoma!*, this isn’t just audience pandering. Thanks to the intimacy and nimbleness of this set-up, Hytner can also mine the show for psychological detail. 

*Guys & Dolls* is that rare show in which the book is the equal of the score, and this production so joyfully lands all of Abe Burrows and Jo Swerling’s zingers and larger-than-life, deliciously named characters, while also giving them dimensionality.

Crucially, it addresses the inherent misogyny. [Marisha Wallace](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/stars-on-stage/marisha-wallace)’s Adelaide is no ditzy, marriage-obsessed dupe, who eventually guilts reluctant long-time fiancé Nathan into settling down with her. Instead, this is a couple desperately, carnally in love with each other, however, it’s Nathan who has the mental block. Daniel Mays (mostly known for his screen work, but making a phenomenal musical theatre debut) emphasises how Nathan relishes his status as the ultimate fixer, always staying one step ahead of the law. What happens if he stops running? 

The pair of them bring impressive comic chops but also an inherent sadness to their big rows, especially the wonderfully absurd sequence in which Adelaide admits she’s invented a brood of children for her concerned mother (Mays’s pique that Nathan is just an assistant manager in this fiction is priceless). 

Duet “Sue Me” — often a throwaway gag — is a masterclass in acting through song, supported by the blocking: they grow more physically distanced with each bitter exchange, while still achingly emotionally attached.

Wallace also avoids the easy humorous route with “Adelaide’s Lament,” dropping the exaggerated pronunciations in favour of framing the number as a gentle confession, aimed at the audience right beside her — one friend speaking to another. But she’s just as capable of amping up her performance in the steamy Hot Box stripteases (no coyness here), in which she owns her power and sexuality. 

In contrast to these warring veterans of love are the newly met, opposites-attract pair: Celinde Schoenmaker’s robustly dedicated missionary Sarah and Andrew Richardson’s charmingly insincere gambler Sky. Again, this is framed as an equal journey, not just as a woman who needs to lighten up. 

If anything, the exquisitely clarion-voiced Schoenmaker is the driving force: in “If I Were a Bell” she seems as drunk on life as on rum, tearing open Sky’s shirt and, following some Gene Kelly lamppost swinging, falling into his arms and swimming through the air. When they meet in song, their harmonies intertwine like a warm embrace. 

The boyish Richardson, a smouldering, Clive Owen-esque presence, actually feels like the lost one of the pair. This mainly works nicely, although both performance and vocals need more projection. There’s also one bewildering misstep: the introduction of a stereotypical gay club in Havana. It gets around the tired trope of a feisty Latina starting a catfight, and a bisexual Sky is a fascinating idea, but it’s never actually developed.

I also would have liked more explosive choreography here (the Cuban sequence begins with dancers scattered in the crowd — less impactful at a distance), but Arlene Phillips and James Cousins’s grounded, organic movement is otherwise invigorating, and the visible band gives us a glorious version of Loesser’s peerless score. Plus there are numerous scene-stealing supporting turns: Cedric Neal’s Nicely-Nicely, lending gospel fervour to “Sit Down, You’re Rocking the Boat”; Mark Oxtoby’s fast-talking Benny; the perfect sight gag of Cameron Johnson’s giant Big Jule.

Most joyfully, the happy ending feels earned. Wallace and Schoenmaker’s “Marry the Man Today” isn’t an expression of dubious making-do, but a dawning realisation — by two shrewd women knocking back shots together; fabulous — that there’s nothing certain about life or love: “You’ve simply gotta gamble”. And when it pays off, as Hytner proves, the rewards are boundless.

'Guys & Dolls' review – Nicholas Hytner hits the jackpot with this exhilarating immersive revival

Read our five-star review of *Guys & Dolls* starring Marisha Wallace at the Bridge Theatre, currently playing through 2 September. Get *Guys & Dolls* tickets on London Theatre.

Nicholas Hytner and Nick Starr spearhead the Bridge Theatre. Having worked together at the [National Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/national-theatre) for over a decade as artistic and executive directors, Hytner and Starr formed the London Theatre Company as part of their efforts to open the largest Off-West End commercial theatre. The 900-seater auditorium is very adaptable and allows shows to be presented in end-on, thrust and promenade formats. 

Production aside, the theatre was praised for its abundance of ladies toilets and its on-site kitchen which, among other things, provides treats freshly baked on site during the interval. 

In 2017, the theatre's inaugural season included a new Richard Bean play *Young Marx*, starring [Rory Kinnear](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/actor-profile/rory-kinnear) and Oliver Chris, *Julius Caesar* starring Ben [Whishaw](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/actor-profile/ben-whishaw) and David Calder, and a new play by Nina Raine about the life of JS Bach starring [Simon Russell Beale](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/actor-profile/simon-russell-beale).

Notable plays at the Bridge Theatre include *The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,* as well as *My Name is Lucy Barton* and *Straight Line Crazy* — the latter two both transferring to New York.

The Gillian Lynne Theatre originally opened in 1847 as the Mogul Music Hall. From 1919 to 1965, it was named the Winter Garden Theatre, but after renovations, the theatre opened as the New London Theatre in 1973. 

The theatre housed Andrew Lloyd Webber’s *Cats*, which was the longest-running musical in West End history when it closed in 2002.  It was also used as a television studio, and was the home of Masters Snooker for two years.

Since the closure of *Cats*, the theatre has hosted productions of Lloyd Webber’s *Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat*, *School of Rock*, and *Cinderella*.

In 2018, Andrew Lloyd Webber announced the theatre would be renamed the Gillian Lynne Theatre, the first London theatre to be named after a woman. Lynne worked on productions with the English National Opera, Royal Shakespeare Company and many West End and Broadway shows. She collaborated with Andrew Lloyd Webber on *Cats, The Phantom of the Opera* and *Aspects of Love.* 

## Gillian Lynne Theatre Seating Information

The Gillian Lynne Theatre features a thrust stage that juts into the auditorium. Seats are on three sides of the auditorium. 

Some seats offer side views of the action on stage. But every seat guarantees a view that's close to the action.

Grease The Musical

GREASE DEC22 BandBs MasterSet 34821SA480x720

This seems to be the summer of reinvented classic musicals, from the moody [*Oklahoma!*](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/reviews/oklahoma-review-young-vic) at the Young Vic to a revamped *[Legally Blonde](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/24209-legally-blonde)* at Regent’s Park Open Air. In that vein, Nikolai Foster dishes up his “gritty” *[Grease](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/24201-grease-the-musical)*, which began Leicester Curve, toured the UK and is now playing in the West End. But is this the one that audiences want?

Yes and no. Foster has gone back to Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey’s original stage musical version, rather than the John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John 50s nostalgia-fest movie. It definitely feels rawer: working-class, disaffected, lust-crazed kids bucking against authority, in the mean streets of Chicago instead of sunny California. There are songs you won’t recognise from the film, like an expressive rock solo for [Dan Partridge](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatre-news/interviews/dan-partridge-and-olivia-moore-on-playing-danny-and-sandy-in-grease)’s restless Danny Zuko, “How Big I’m Gonna Be”.

But you come to realise the wisdom of the movie adaptation in narrative terms. The Danny/Sandy romance really doesn’t feature that much here, meaning big numbers like “Hopelessly Devoted to You” – though well sung by Olivia Moore – come out of nowhere. Sandy’s climactic sex-kitten transformation is particularly inexplicable, since she’s vigorously defended her (admittedly goody-two-shoes) life choices in previous scenes.

Oddly, their dynamic is also doubled up by Danny’s push-pull relationship with perky cheerleader Patty Simcox, who likewise challenges him to do more with his life than just hang out with his gang, the Burger Palace Boys. She lingers as another romantic prospect, thanks to the charged scenes between Partridge and the vivid Jessica Croll. Yet Patty has more growth than Danny – who’s basically given a free pass for his groping, lying and vacillating. 

But if this *Grease* loses the thread of its boy-meets-girl plot, it’s much more successful as a paean to teen friendships. From the eager back and forth of the indelible “Summer Nights” to the slumber parties and school dances, these are recognisably kids who take solace in and want to fit in with their peers, while also figuring out who they might become after high school. “We Go Together” is a jubilant ensemble triumph.

And that ensemble features plenty of winning turns. Mary Moore and Noah Harrison are endearing in the playful duet “Mooning”, Jake Reynolds charms when picking out chords for “These Magic Changes”, Katie Lee impresses in the energetic hand jive competition, and Paul French brings a dangerous edge to the testosterone-fuelled Kenickie. 

Jocasta Almgill is the clear standout though, showing the searing pain and desperation behind Rizzo’s sharp-tongued bullying and slinky-hipped swagger, culminating in a ferocious “There Are Worse Things I Could Do”.

[Peter Andre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatre-news/interviews/peter-andre-achieves-a-lifelong-dream-with-grease-in-the-west-end), if vocally underpowered, is surprisingly good fun as the Elvis-aping DJ and fantasy Teen Angel. It helps that he’s essentially in on the joke, sending up his own cheesy persona and incongruous presence in this professional musical theatre cast. “Beauty School Drop Out” is a highlight thanks to its camp, witty staging, with an angel whizzing in on a scooter and mannequin doll heads paraded around.

Frustratingly, the other songs lack that impact. [Arlene Phillips](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatre-news/interviews/choreographer-arlene-phillips-putting-women-front-and-centre-in-grease)’s choreography is effectively character-driven, from youthful rockabilly romps to the guys throwing punches, thrusting crotches and smoothing their hair, but you long for a number to really explode off the massive Dominion stage. Colin Richmond’s school gym-based set is likewise limiting.

But then that’s the core issue with this production, which feels caught between sombre realism and full-throttle, sugar-rush escapism. It feints at the former, like teasing a rumble with another gang, trouble with the cops, or a more hard-hitting look at predatory male behaviour, yet never quite commits. Though given the glee with which fans welcomed the end singalong megamix, I rather suspect that it’s the gentler, more inviting side of *Grease* which will keep audiences asking “Tell me more, tell me more”.

'Grease' review — this fitfully gritty take on the beloved musical still gives you chills

The Dominion Theatre opened on 3 Oct. 1929. The theatre is located on the site of the former Horse Shoe Brewery, site of the 1814 London Beer Flood.

The theatre screened the premiere of Charlie Chaplin’s film, *City Lights* (with Chaplin himself attending). During its history, the Dominion Theatre hosted movies such as *South Pacific* and *The Sound of Music*, whilst interspersed with live performances, most famously the *Judy Garland Show*. In the 1980s, music stars played at the Dominion Theatre, including Dolly Parton, Duran Duran, Bon Jovi, David Bowie and U2.  

In the early 1990s, plans were set to convert the theatre into a car park, but this was not followed through. Now, the Dominion Theatre is home to large musicals, including *Grease,* a 12-year run of *We Will Rock You,* and *The Prince of Egypt.*

## Dominion Theatre Seating Information

The auditorium has two levels – the Stalls and Circle. It is a very large space and offers excellent views of the stage wherever you sit.

In the Stalls, the rake of the seating is very good, offering excellent views from most seats and the legroom is excellent too. 

In the Circle, the seats are strongly raked which offers a great view.

The Old Vic, originally named the Royal Coburg Theatre, was designed in 1818 by Rudolph Cabanel. Its name was later changed to the Royal Victoria Theatre, then the Royal Victoria Hall, before it took on its nickname of 'The Old Vic' as its official name in 1925. 

The Old Vic has housed acclaimed performances with such celebrated actors as John Gielgud’s *Hamlet*, Laurence Olivier’s *Macbeth* and *Othello* in 1937, and Judi Dench’s Juliet in *Romeo and Juliet*, which was privately performed for The Queen in 1957.

In 1963, the Old Vic became the home base of the [National Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/national-theatre) of Great Britain during its formation under Laurence Olivier. The theatre continued to host the National Theatre until the move to South Bank in 1976. 

There are two entrances to the Old Vic: one on The Cut and the other on Waterloo Road, which is an accessible entrance. In 2019, 'Penny', an accessible basement cafe and bar was opened, offering drinks, sandwiches and snacks. 

## Old Vic Seating Information

The auditorium has three levels - Stalls, Dress Circle, and the Lilian Baylis Circle.

Despite the Dress Circle overhang, this doesn’t affect the view due to pillars. There is also a staggered rake that will be noticeable from row J to allow better viewing.

The Lilian Baylis Circle is high above the ground and overhangs the Dress Circle at row C meaning row E will miss the top of the stage. There are also standing seats available at the sides of this circle.

Bonnie and Clyde - LON [26695]

Bonnie and Clyde

B&C 480x720

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Chestnut Barrow's vicious killing sprees and robberies earned them "public enemy" status. Even though they brutally murdered dozen of innocent people, a nation doted on the criminal sweethearts. 

So it's a shame that, in a show about their life on the run and putting their loved ones in jeopardy, the two famous lawbreakers are reduced to clean-cut caricatures.

Growing up, both eventual killers dream of becoming "famous": Bonnie idolises Clara Bow, while Clyde views himself as a budding Al Capone. Ivan Menchell's book comprehensively details their four-year relationship and the wider world around them: Model T’s, religious sermons, and the "American Dream" all get their many mentions.

Nick Winston's [*Bonnie & Clyde*](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/show/26695-bonnie-and-clyde) suffers from telling too much, rather than showing its audience what happened, ruining any pace. We see little of their attacks, and what we do see is neutered to keep it all PG. Plus, their fateful end is shown within the first two minutes. Any sense of jeopardy is — ironically — killed.

Thankfully, our offenders’ onstage chemistry adds much-needed fire to otherwise ploddy scenes. Frances Mayli McCann delivers a tender, sultry Bonnie who never shies away from being vulnerable. McCann shines with Don Black and Frank Wildhorn’s gospel-infused (if repetitive) score, with “Dyin’ Ain’t So Bad” setting an example of performing an 11-o-clock number.

As Clyde, Jordan Luke Gage turns the dramatic tension up in all the musical moments, transforming into an otherworldly beast for "Raise a Little Hell." But it’s difficult to believe he’s so terrifying when he charms Bonnie in a way that in today’s society, would equate to a 3am “you up?” text.

There’s competent supporting work from Jodie Steele, who blends Blanche's brashy self with a whiney voice in a soft, emotional package. Steele and McCann steal the show with a soulful “You Love Who You Love” duet (musician Frank Wildhorn penned Whitney Houston’s “Where Do Broken Hearts Go,” with obvious similarities between the two.) 

A hard-working if underused ensemble, including Oliver-winner George Maguire as Buck, and Olivier-nominee Cleve September as Ted, do all they can to eke out any subplot.

Philip Whitcomb continues the soft touches with a minimalist set and pleasant period costumes, complemented by Zoe Spurr's sepia-toned lighting. Nina Dunn's video design and projections cleverly elevate the story and on-stage set. However, sitting towards the back of the auditorium, it's challenging to see everything when projections benefit storytelling. Perhaps it’s best to sit closer to the firing line. 

*Bonnie & Clyde* is the West End show that could. After two sell-out concerts, and a spring run at the Arts Theatre, it’s back for 11 weeks at the [Garrick Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/garrick-theatre). All the audience needed to see was a smoking gun and that was enough for a night of whooping and hollering. But, for a show with so much potential, it's all too posed and predictable. 

*Bonnie & Clyde is at the Garrick Theatre through 20 May. Book Bonnie & Clyde tickets on London Theatre.*

The Garrick Theatre opened in 1889, and is named after actor David Garrick. When the theatre was built, architects discovered an underground river on the site!

The theatre became associated with comedy in 1982 with a four-year run of the farce *No Sex Please, We’re British*. This was the longest-running show at the Garrick, until J. B. Priestley’s *An Inspector Calls* transferred from the [Aldwych Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/aldwych-theatre) in 1995 and resided for six years.

In recent years, a number of musicals have played here, including *A Little Night Music*, *Chicago*, and *The Scottsboro Boys*. In 2015, [Kenneth Branagh](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/stars-on-stage/kenneth-branagh) took up residency at the Garrick for a year-long season of plays with his own theatre company. 

## Garrick Theatre Seating Information

The auditorium has three levels – Stalls, Dress Circle and Grand Circle. In the Stalls, the view of the top of the stage is slightly obscured by the overhang of the Dress Circle from Row N onwards. 

In the Dress Circle, the view of the stage is not obscured by the overhang of the Upper Circle, but the ceiling can feeel low for those in the last row. The seats are designed in a horseshoe shape around the theatre and the Dress Circle offers good sightlines.

The London Coliseum opened in 1904. When the Coliseum first opened, it was home to variety shows – chariot races even took place. The idea stood that if shows weren’t accessible to the general public, then it didn’t have a place at the London Coliseum. 

In 1968, the theatre became the home of Sadler’s Wells Opera (now the English National Opera), with the London Coliseum auditiorium redesigned to allow for a large orchestra. The London Coliseum has such a presence in the English opera calendar that it’s now the British home of operatic performances.

The London Coliseum has the widest proscenium arch in the West End, measuring at 55 feet wide.

## London Coliseum Seating Information

The London Coliseum seats 2,359 people across two levels - Stalls, Dress Circle, Upper Circle and Balcony. All seats offer an excellent view of the London Coliseum stage, so you can feel a part of the action.

Sadler's Wells is the home of contemporary dance productions in London. A smaller, 180-seat studio theatre (the Lilian Baylis Studio) was also built in the renovation to accommodate workshops of new works, as well as smaller productions for younger audiences. 

Sir Matthew Bourne's all-male *Swan Lake* premiered here in 1995 on the main stage before going on to international success. Sadler's Wells theatre events take place year round, with musicals taking place in the summer months, and dance shows throughout spring, autumn, and winter.

## Sadler's Wells Seating Information

The auditorium has three levels - Stalls, First Circle and Second Circle. The sightlines from most seats are very good, with no pillars obstructing views.

In the Stalls, the view from seats in Rows N-S may be slightly obstructed by the overhang of the First Circle.

In the First Circle, the view from seats in Rows L-M may be partially impaired by the overhang of the Second Circle.

The Second Circle may feel slightly removed from the action, and the view from the side seats in the front four rows is slightly impaired due to the seats being set at an angle.

The Peacock Theatre opened in 1960 in the West End, close to the [Aldwych Theatre](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/aldwych-theatre) and [Theatre Royal Drury Lane](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/theatre-royal-drury-lane). Originally named the Royalty Theatre, early productions typically tended to be London plays. This only lasted for a year, as the theatre was repurposed into a cinema, screening movies including *My Fair Lady*.

The Peacock Theatre has been used as a television studio. From 1980 - 1986, the Peacock was home to *This Is Your Life*, an autobiographical television series that delved into the lives of British stars. A new lease of life was breathed into the Peacock Theatre in the 1990s, thanks to [Sadler’s Wells](https://www.londontheatre.co.uk/theatres/sadlers-wells). Building their new theatre, the Peacock became a subsidiary dance venue for the company. Currently, the theatre is shared between the London School of Economics lectures in the daytime and Sadler’s Wells productions in the evening. The Peacock really is the Jekyll & Hyde of London theatres.

The building was originally opened in March 1967 by Her Majesty the Queen and this historic restoration was possible through generous support from Arts Council England and the Heritage Lottery Fund. Queen Elizabeth Hall reopened in April 2018 following almost three years of renovations with world class, environmentally-improved new facilities for audiences and artists. The building also houses Purcell Room — a smaller, more intimate space.
