The Palace Theatre - London

Opened in 1891 as the Royal English Opera House, grand opera fell flat here and the theatre was re-opened as the Palace, a music hall, two years later on 10th December, 1892. During the later 1950's the interior marble work was painted over but thankfully during the second half of the 1980's the theatre was extensively renovated to it's former glory without closing the theatre. The interior painting was removed to once again disclose the marble and onyx, while on the outside the vast illuminated hoardings, advertising productions at the theatre, have been got rid of to allow a clear view of the building which holds a prominent positioning on Cambridge Circus at the Junction of Shaftesbury Avenue and Charing Cross Road. Since the mid 1920's the Palace has been generally home to musicals which have included, in 1925 No No Nanette!, which run for 655 performances. Song of Norway in 1946. 839 performances of King's Rhapsody in 1949. The Sound of Music in 1961 which run for 2,385 performances. Cabaret in 1968, and in 1972 Jesus Christ Superstar which run for 3,358 performances . The current production of Les Miserables, originally opened at the Barbican Theatre on 8th October 1985 before transferring here on 4th December 1985. Les Miserables became the Palace's longest running production on 10th January, 1994. Concluding in 2009 was Spamalot. A major hit of 2010 is Priscilla Queen of The Desert.
