Catch a show at this striking Victorian theatre and gaze in awe at its opulent gilt moldings, carved plasterwork, angels-and-cherub fresco and elephant boxes. Designed in l894 by the famous theatre architect Frank Matcham, the landmark building's contemporary atrium-style extension has a Baby Grand performance space for smaller shows and Luciano's restaurant, named after opera giant Pavarotti who made his UK debut on these very boards. Catch a varied year-round programme of drama, musicals, ballet, opera and the hugely popular Christmas panto. Tickets can be bought online or at the theatre. Tours available.
