The National Theatre Olivier is the largest of the three theatres in the Royal National Theatre, based at the South Bank centre - a cultural centre showcasing the best in music, theatre, film and art. The theatre holds around 1,150 people, depending on the production, and was named after actor Laurence Olivier. The fan-shaped layout of the seating is reminiscent of that in the Barbican's theatre, and ensures that you'll have a good view of the stage wherever you're seated. The building has dining facilities, which are shared between the three theatres. These include two restaurants, three buffet bars and espresso bars. A range of productions are staged, with emphasis on high-quality and high-brow performances.
