Noel Coward Theatre in London
The Noel Coward Theatre in London was given its name in May 2006 in recognition of the young playwright, Noel Coward presenting his first play there in 1920. Previously, the London theatre was known as The Albery Theatre after the theatre's long serving manager, Sir Bronson Albery. In gratitude, Sir Albery's bust is displayed in the Noel Coward Theatre's foyer.
Originally, the Noel Coward Theatre was named The New Theatre. It was Sir Charles Wyndham's second London theatre in the area, next to his first, The Wyndham's Theatre. The building preserves the initial design by architect WGR Sprague with an exterior in 'Free Classical' style and a rich 'Louis XVI' style interior of gold and cream. Seating is provided on four separate levels for a total of 872 people. At that time, this London theatre was considered one of the prettiest and most airy theatres in London.
Today, the Noel Coward Theatre in London is operated by Delfont Mackintosh Theatres and has shown many acclaimed productions such as Noel Coward's "I'll Leave It To You", John Gielgud's "Hamlet" and "Romeo and Juliet", and "Oliver!" by Lionel Bart in 1960.
