The Prince Edward Theatre, standing prominently on Old Compton Street in Soho, is one of London’s most stylish and celebrated art deco playhouses. Opened in 1930 and designed by architect Edward Stone, the theatre has undergone several transformations, including stints as a dance hall and a cinema before being meticulously restored to its original theatrical splendour in the early 1990s.
Its opulent, spacious interior is famed for its wide stage and excellent sightlines, making it a premier venue for large-scale, high-spectacle musicals. Over the years, it has hosted legendary productions such as Evita, Mary Poppins, and Aladdin, cementing its reputation for delivering world-class entertainment.
Currently, the theatre is the home of the high-energy jukebox musical “MJ The Musical”, which showcases the life and hits of Michael Jackson. Its blend of historic charm and modern technical capability ensures it remains a vital crown jewel of the West End.
