Now I’d like to tell you about London’s theatres
as theatre in the United Kingdom play an important part in British culture. By
medieval period theatre had developed with mummers’ plays. These were folk
tales retelling old stories and actors travelled from town to town performing
these for their audience in return for money. Now there are over 50 theatres in
London’s West End. The most famous are:
The Royal National Theatre
which combines
three theaters that show a variety of plays and performances. Besides musicals
and actors, the theatre is known for its ghosts, for example, the ghost of a
man, dressed in a grey suit and a cocked hat. According to the legend he was
killed in the theatre building in the 18-19 centuries. Another ghost named
Joseph Grimaldi, a clown, which is said to help nervous actors on stage.
The Royal Court Theatre
The Royal
Court Theatre, which is located in Kensington and Chelsea, made an enormous
contribution to the development of modern theatre. It was founded in 1870. Interestingly,
the original theatre was located in a reconstructed church, and only in 1888 moved
to its own building on the same street. In repertoire there are British and
foreign plays.
London’s
Piccadilly Theatre
London’s Piccadilly Theatre is one of the
newest venues, opening in April 1928. Since opening in 1928, the Piccadilly
Theatre has been used for a wide range of entertainment, spanning from cinema
to ballets and dramas. Their opening musical, Blue Eyes, starred one of the
most celebrated actresses of the era, Evelyn Laye, after which it was taken
over by Warner Brothers and used as a cinema. London’s Piccadilly Theatre is

Casino. During the World War II, a part of the building was destructed with a
bomb. In 1950, theatre was reopened after reconstruction.
The Globe Theatre
The Globe
Theatre was a theatre in London associated with William Shakespeare. It was
built in 1599 by Shakespeare's playing company. Unfortunately, the original Globe Theatre lasted only
fourteen years. In 1613, it burnt to the ground during a performance of
Shakespeare's Henry VIII.
Today, Globe
Theatre building is located just a few hundred meters from its original
location.
As in the original Globe, the
theatre is open to the sky and has a thrust stage that projects into a large
circular yard, surrounded by three tiers of steeply raked seating. Plays are
normally performed between May and the first week of October. In the winter,
the theatre is used for educational purposes. Tours are available all year
round.
Sadler's Wells
Theatre
In recent decades, the theatre Sadler's
Wells gained a reputation as one of the UK's leading dance stage. If you want
to attend the dance performance, we advise you to check the poster of the
Sadler's Wells theatre. You can attend a musical here too. The most famous
