Theatre history

The Victoria Palace Theatre is a theatre in Victoria Street, London, England.

Location Situated opposite Victoria Station, it was designed by Frank Matcham and opened in 1911 on the site of two music hall buildings from the second half of the 19th century which had both been demolished. Under impresario Alfred Butt, the Victoria Palace Theatre continued the musical tradition of the place by presenting mainly varieties and revues.

Characteristics The domed auditorium seats 1,550 people. A sliding roof helps ventilate the auditorium during the intervals, which was a novelty feature in the days of heavy smoking during performances.
