Despre activitate
This walking tour takes us through the very heart of West End of London as we journey to some of the most famous theatres in the world.
In this private walking tour we start near the oldest theatre in London and weave through the Strand and the famous Covent Garden, the home of modern live-entertainment and through the maze like streets of Theatre-land and towards the bright lights of Leicester Square and Piccadilly as we finish outside the beautiful Haymarket.
We will visit theatres where actors have been murdered and ghosts loom large. See the homes of the longest running plays and musicals and the locations where stars were born and theatrical history was made.
And find out about the King who used his trips to the theatre to visit his mistress and see the memorials of some of the greatest names in entertainment.

Built on the site of the Old Bull Inn, the Nell Gwynne Tavern was named after the infamous mistress of Charles II. Nell, born and raised in the locality at St Martin in the Fields, sold fruit in the nearby Covent Garden market before gaining fame as an actress on the Drury Lane stage. Samuel Pepys describes seeing “the mighty pretty Nell” on his way to the Strand in 1667.
Seemingly forever Nothing a den of iniquity, in 1897, William Terris, a well-known actor of the day, was murdered yards from the pub by a stagehand from the neighbouring Adelphi Theatre.
Even in the 1960s, the notorious Richardson Gang were reputed to have frequented The Nell.
It's a lot nicer now :-)
