The Theatre
Originally The Queen’s Theatre, the Sondheim Theatre is a popular venue on Shaftesbury Avenue in London’s West End. When the theatre opened on 8th October 1907, it was a twin to the Hicks Theatre, now the Gielgud Theatre. Both the theatres followed W. G. R. Sprague’s design.
In September 1940, a German bomb struck the façade of Sondheim Theatre. This event led to the auditorium’s Edwardian interior yet modern exterior, unlike its Twin whose outer appearance has hardly changed. The Queen’s Theatre became the Sondheim Theatre in 2019, reopening on 18th December.
