萨德勒之井剧院 - 英国剧院

Venue info

萨德勒之井剧院（Sadler's Wells）是伦敦的一处剧院场馆，曾在British Theatre上报道。来这里了解即将上演的演出、实用的场馆指南，以及观演前的购票建议与订票要点。坐落于克拉肯威尔的地点上，多个不同版本的萨德勒斯·威尔斯剧院曾经存在过。最早的版本是一个简单的‘音乐屋’，于1683年开业。结合同名水井的水以及其作为万能药的地位，该剧院在18世纪衰落之前曾吸引了各式各样的顾客。 1765年，一个新建的剧院开幕，举办了丰富多样的演出，包括爱国表演与海军情节剧（在水上剧场的协助下）以及文学改编剧目。该剧院于1875年被改为溜冰场，并于1878年被拆除。 1879年，它重新开放为剧院，成为许多音乐大厅表演者的落脚点，并于1896年转变为电影院。1915年，剧院再次关闭，并直到1931年1月6日才重新开幕。这次20世纪新阶段的首演节目是由拉尔夫·理查德森和约翰·吉尔古德主演的《第十二夜》，与此同时还建立了一个芭蕾舞学校，得到定期排练空间的支持。二战期间，剧院关闭，1945年重新开放。在失去歌剧团给伦敦科洛西姆之后，剧院成为新晋艺术家和现代舞的家园。这种趋势持续到了整个20世纪，其中最成功的作品之一是马修·伯恩的《天鹅湖》（1995年）。当前版本的剧院于1998年10月11日开幕，目前继续接待来自世界各地的多种舞蹈团体。西迪·拉比·切尔考伊（2013年11月6日 - 2013年11月10日）霍夫什·谢克特（2013年10月30日 - 2013年11月3日）辅助演出：有适合听障人士的设施吗？整个礼堂都配备了红外系统（感应环和耳机）。导盲犬和/或助听犬允许进入吗？辅助犬可以进入礼堂。

History

Many different incarnations of the Sadler’s Wells theatre have stood upon the site in Clerkenwell. The first was a simple ‘Musick House’

which opened in 1683. Coupled with the eponymous well’s water and its status as a cure-all

the theatre enjoyed a wide array of clientele before its eventual decline in the 18th Century. A newly constructed theatre opened in 1765

hosting a wide variety of productions

including patriotic plays and naval melodramas (with the assistance of an aquatic theatre)

and literary adaptations. The theatre was eventually converted into a roller-skating rink in 1875 and condemned in 1878. It re-opened as a theatre in 1879

becoming home to many music hall performers and eventually converting to a cinema in 1896. The theatre would close again in 1915

not to be reopened until 6 January 1931. The inaugural production of this new 20th Century phase was Twelfth Night starring Ralph Richardson and John Gielgud and a ballet school was established

after being granted regular rehearsal space. The theatre closed during the Second World War and reopened in 1945. After losing its opera company to the London Coliseum

the theatre became the home for new artists and contemporary dance. This continued throughout the 20th Century

with one of the most successful productions being Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake (1995). The current incarnation of the theatre opened on 11 October 1998

where it continues to play host to a wide variety of dance companies all across the world.
