Secrets of Covent Garden & Theatreland
Wednesday, 18th of September
Meeting place: Covent Garden Time: 11:00-13:00
Would you like to walk with me through 400 years of theatre history with plenty of Royal intrigue, dramatic stories and theatre ghosts on the way?
Find out who was the “Merry Monarch” and why the oldest theatre in England still has separate Kings’ and Princes’ staircases?
Learn why did electricity at the Savoy Theatre have an immediate effect on ladies’ makeup and jewellery and where in England you drive on the wrong side of the road?
Stop in the Savoy Theatre Museum and find out why the Theatre Manager had to break the light bulbs in front of the audience and the secret of Gilbert and Sullivan’s collaboration?
Visit the most haunted theatre in England?
We would stop at the three oldest theatres of London on the way and finish our walk with a mini tour of the Royal Opera House and a drink in splendid Drury Lane Theatre.
Price - £30. Part of the proceeds will go to charitable causes.
