This British theatre was originally built to be the home of Gilbert and Sullivan's Savoy Operas, and was restored to its original art deco form in 1993 after the auditorium and roof were destroyed by fire. The theatre usually shows plays of the British persuasion (e.g. Noel Coward's Hay Fever and a musical version of Hardy's Tess of the D'Ubervilles) but at Christmas it often hosts a variety of children's shows. The auditorium holds just over 1,100 people, including seats for wheelchairs in the dress circle, and it can also be hired for conference purposes.
