The Duke of York's Theatre is a West End theatre in St Martin's Lane, in the City of Westminster , London. It was built for Frank Wyatt and his wife, Violet Melnotte , who retained ownership of the theatre until her death in 1935. Designed by the architect Walter Emden , it opened on 10 September 1892 as the Trafalgar Square Theatre, and was renamed Trafalgar Theatre in 1894. The following year, it became the Duke of York's to honour the future King George V .[1]
The theatre's opening show was comic opera The Wedding Eve by Frédéric Toulmouche . One of the earliest musical comedies , Go-Bang Jerome K. Jerome 's Miss Hobbs was staged as well as David Belasco 's Madame Butterfly Puccini , who later turned it into the famous opera. This was also the theatre where J. M. Barrie 's Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up Basil Rathbone , who played Alfred de Musset in Madame Sand Tonight or Never .
The theatre was Grade II listed by English Heritage in September 1960.[2] Capital Radio and it closed in 1979 for refurbishment. It reopened in February 1980 and the first production under the patronage of Capital was Rose , starring Glenda Jackson . In 1991 comedian Pat Condell performed sketches at the theatre which were later released on DVD.[3]
ATG Entertainment bought the theatre in 1992; this coincided with the successful Royal Court production of Ariel Dorfman 's Death and the Maiden The Rocky Horror Show
The theatre houses the producing offices of ATG Entertainment's subsidiary Sonia Friedman Productions , whose revival of In Celebration Orlando Bloom played until 15 September 2007.
Singers Rag'n'Bone Man and Pink filmed their 2021 video for Anywhere Away From Here in the theatre.[4] [5]
