Venue info

Trafalgar Theatre, British Theatre’da yer alan Londra’daki tiyatro mekânlarından biridir. Ziyaretiniz öncesinde yakında sahnelenecek yapımları, mekâna dair pratik bilgileri ve bilet rezervasyonuna ilişkin faydalı ipuçlarını keşfedin. Trafalgar Theatre, 29 Eylül 1930’da kapılarını ilk açtığında Whitehall Theatre adıyla biliniyordu. 1930’lar boyunca modern komedilere ev sahipliği yaparak güçlü bir ün kazanan mekân, İkinci Dünya Savaşı yıllarında ise bir dizi revü prodüksiyonuna sahne oldu. Bu dönemin en büyük başarılarından biri, Phyllis Dixey’in başrolünde yer aldığı The Whitehall Follies idi. West End’de sahneye çıkan ilk striptiz sanatçısı olan Dixey, gösterinin başarısı sayesinde tiyatroyu kiralayarak burada beş yıl boyunca varlığını sürdürdü. 1950’ler ve 1960’larda tiyatro, özellikle büyük ilgi gören beş fars oyununa ev sahipliği yaptı; bunlar bugün Whitehall Farces adıyla anılıyor ve her biri 2 ila 4 yıl arasında sahnelendi. 1969’dan 1974’e kadar ise Pyjama Tops adlı çıplak revü burada oynandı; ardından mekân kapatıldı. Tiyatro, kapsamlı bir yenileme çalışmasının ardından nihayet 1986’da yeniden açıldı. Komedi ağırlıklı programına devam eden bina, 1997’de televizyon ve radyo stüdyosuna dönüştürüldü. 1999’da yeniden tiyatro olarak kullanılmaya başlansa da, daha sonra yeniden yapılandırma amacıyla tekrar kapandı. Trafalgar Studios adı verilen yeni tiyatro, 3 Haziran 2004’te Othello prodüksiyonuyla açıldı. O tarihten bu yana mekân; Sweeney Todd, Jane Eyre, Dealer’s Choice, Entertaining Mr. Sloane ve A Christmas Carol dâhil olmak üzere kısa süreli oyun ve müzikal yapımlarına ev sahipliği yaptı. Restore edilip yeniden The Trafalgar Theatre adını alan bina, milyonlarca sterlinlik kapsamlı bir yenileme projesinden geçti. Bu çalışma sayesinde tiyatro, 1930’lara ait özgün tarihî tasarımına yeniden kavuşturuldu; üstelik bu detayların bir kısmı 90 yılı aşkın süredir görülmemişti. MasterPark Trafalgar Meydanı.

History

The Trafalgar Theatre was originally called the Whitehall Theatre when it opened on 29 September 1930. Throughout the decade, it built up a reputation for housing modern comedies, before producing several revues throughout the Second World War.

One of the greatest successes of the period was The Whitehall Follies, which starred Phyllis Dixey. As the first stripper to perform in the West End, the success of the show allowed her to lease the theatre and stay there for the next five years.

The 1950s and 1960s saw the theatre hosting five farces (known as the Whitehall Farces), which proved especially popular (running 2-4 years each). From 1969-1974, a nude revue (Pyjama Tops) played in the venue before it was closed.

The theatre finally reopened after refurbishment in 1986. It continued a programme of comedies before it was converted into a television and radio studio in 1997. It returned to theatrical use in 1999, but was subsequently closed to be reconfigured. The new theatre called Trafalgar Studios, opened on 3 June 2004 with a production of Othello. Since then, the theatre has hosted short runs of plays and musicals, including Sweeney Todd, Jane Eyre, Dealer’s Choice, Entertaining Mr. Sloane, and A Christmas Carol.

Restored and renamed The Trafalgar Theatre, the building underwent a multi-million-pound restoration project reinstating the theatre back to its original heritage 1930s design, some of which has not been seen for over 90 years.

What a gorgeous theatre, we went to see the 17:30 show of "Oh, Mary"! on Thursday 26th February. It's absolutely lovely inside with the most comfortable seats, we have ever sat in. Lovely staff who were very friendly. We will definitely be back.

I haven’t seen a production at the Trafalgar Theatre since it was the Trafalgar Studios. Previously the theatre had two Studios - which provided quite an intimate atmosphere for plays, but the Studios themselves were somewhat bland and lacked character. I visited recently to see “Oh, Mary!” and was really impressed with the renovations that have transformed the theatre back to its former Art Deco glory - now it really is a beautiful theatre. The play itself was superb - camp frivolity at its finest. Mason Alexander Park is a force of nature and mesmerising to watch. Seats were comfortable, and bathrooms were clean. All the staff I met were very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be visiting again.

I visited for the first time to see the Clarkston play, which runs until November 22nd. It features talented actors Joe Locke, Ruaridh Mollica, and Sophie Melville. The Trafalgar Theatre is a stunning Grade II listed venue situated near Trafalgar Square. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful whenever I had questions. I had the excellent opportunity to sit on the balcony, where the seats were incredibly comfortable with ample legroom.

Went to see @Clarckston last week. We LOVED it. But I am writing this review to thank the staff of the theatre. We had a problem with our tickets and they helped us A LOT doing what they could so my daughter could see one of her favourite actors. Everything worked out perfect at the end. Thank you for your kindness and Support.
