Venue info

萨沃伊剧院是伦敦的一座剧院场馆,曾在 British Theatre 报道。来这里了解即将上演的演出、实用的观演与场馆指南,以及到访前的订票建议。 萨伏依剧院(Savoy Theatre)建于昔日萨伏依宫(Savoy Palace)旧址之上,并于1881年10月10日开幕,是全球首座完全以电力照明的公共建筑。它的首部上演作品是吉尔伯特与沙利文的《佩兴丝》(Patience)。此后,剧院又陆续呈现了他们最后八部诙谐歌剧(如1885年的《天皇》(The Mikado)与1889年的《贡多拉船夫》(The Gondoliers)),并由此催生出“萨伏依歌剧”(Savoy Opera)这一用来概括该流派的称呼。 剧院一直到20世纪初仍持续上演歌剧类演出。1922年12月,剧院推出《金银岛》(Treasure Island)改编作品,大受欢迎,随后几乎年年复排,直至第二次世界大战爆发前夕。1929年短暂停业后,剧院恢复定期上演吉尔伯特与沙利文的作品季,同时也呈现重要的非音乐戏剧作品——例如1941年《欢喜冤家》(Blithe Spirit)在此首演,以及1931年《莎乐美》(Salome)在英格兰的首次公开演出。 1990年,一场大火席卷整栋建筑,除舞台与后台区域外几乎付之一炬。得益于原始设计图纸得以保存,剧院得以修复,并于1993年重新开幕。1990年代与2000年代,剧院既有吉尔伯特与沙利文作品的复排,也上演了广受欢迎的戏剧作品(如《奥斯卡的重要性》(The Importance of Being Oscar)与《干草热》(Hay Fever))。近年,剧院还迎来了《律政俏佳人》(Legally Blonde)在西区的首演,该剧于2010年至2012年在此演出。 1, 4, 6, 9, 11, 13, 15, 23, 26, 59, 68, 76, 77a, 91, 168, 171, 172, 176, 188, 243, 341, 521 请保护这只熊!世界上最受欢迎的、喜爱吃橘子酱的熊将在萨沃伊剧院华丽亮相伦敦西区。由McFly乐队的汤姆·弗莱彻作曲,奥利弗奖得主杰西卡·斯沃尔编剧,以及卢克·谢泼德(作品包括《朱丽叶》、《星光快车》)执导,《帕丁顿熊音乐剧》是一次关于家庭、归属感和坚定眼神的“温暖而机智”(Time Out)的庆祝。 来伦敦萨伏伊剧院现场感受西区音乐剧《贱女孩》的爆笑魅力,现正上演中。立即前往 BritishTheatre.com 预订门票。

History

Built on the site of the old Savoy Palace and opening on 10 October 1881, the Savoy Theatre was the first public building in the world to be lit solely by electricity. Its first production was Gilbert and Sullivan’s Patience. The theatre would go on to present the final eight of their comic operas (such as The Mikado in 1885 and The Gondoliers in 1889), inspiring the phrase ‘Savoy Opera’ as a description for the genre.

The theatre would continue to host operatic performances until the early 20th Century. In December 1922, the theatre produced an adaptation of Treasure Island, which proved so popular it was revived every year until the beginning of the Second World War. After a brief closure in 1929, the theatre hosted regular seasons of Gilbert and Sullivan, as well as major non-musical works (for example, the premiere of Blithe Spirit in 1941, and the first public performances in England of Salome in 1931).

In 1990, a fire swept through the building, claiming everything except for the stage and backstage areas. Thanks to the preservation of the original plans, the theatre was restored and reopened in 1993. The 1990s and 2000s played host to a mixture of Gilbert and Sullivan revivals, and successful dramatic works (like The Importance of Being Oscar and Hay Fever). More recently the theatre played host to the West End premiere of Legally Blonde, which ran from 2010-2012.

Review is about the theatre not the shows. The worst theatre I've ever been in for comfort. Seats narrow and have 0 leg room. Im 5ft 7 and was uncomfortable for the 3 hours. It was ridiculously hot. Everyone was suffering being on top of each other. We were in the Grand Circle and when we showed our tickets outside we felt the woman was rude. Very much "you are in the cheapest seats go round.." Signage would have saved the embarrassment. We asked if we could go to the bar as thats why we arrived early. She said we could but we would have to come back and use the other external entrance to get to our seats. Fine. It was only when we ordered at the bar did they put an announcement out to say there are actually bars and toilets on every level. Why she didnt point this out was just rude. We've never been here before. The Paddington Musical was exceptional. This is no reflection on the shows you will see.

We went to see Paddington the Musical which was great! Our seats were in the Grand Circle and the view was good even with the safety rail. The leg room was rather cramped though. The theatre itself was ornate and rather beautiful, and of course being right next door to The Savoy theatre also makes it rather special.

My partner and I watched Paddington The Musical at The Savoy Theatre and truly believe it’s one of the best experiences we’ve done! The entire cast were brilliant, the set design was mesmerising and we experienced every emotion possible! We 100% recommend this to anybody wanting to create a beautiful memory! ✨🐻

Had a fantastic time seeing Paddington. An amazing production, the cast were all great - especially Paddington (very cute!). We were sat in seats C4 C5 in the Dress Circle, had a clear view of the entire stage - would recommend bringing a marmalade sandwich or two 🥪
