The jewel in our crown. What better way to mark World Art Deco Day (29 April 2022) than to celebrate our very own beautifully restored Trafalgar Theatre, right in the heart of London’s West End Reopened in July 2021, our stunning landmark theatre is now the official London home to Jersey Boys.
The spectacular Grade II listed glorious Trafalgar Theatre is the result of a major multi-million pound restoration project reinstating the theatre back to its original heritage 1930’s design, some of which has not been seen for over 90 years.
Within the auditorium, the newly restored decoration and lighting is black with silver, bronze and gold metallic hints, reflective of the original interior’s colour palette. Using historical photographs as a reference the auditorium carpet and seating fabric replicate the original designs patterns, with greens, creams and yellows to contrast against the monochrome walls. The Balcony front – that had been carefully stored away for a number of years when the theatre was two studio spaces – has been beautifully restored and refitted to spectacular effect, along with the grand ceiling and proscenium arch.
Elsewhere, the new entrance foyer provides new more spacious bars and a new box office with tiling and details inspired by the original 1930s foyer design.
We LOVE our theatre. We hope you do too! Pay us a visit soon!
