Brief history of the Piccadilly Theatre

At its grand opening on 27th April, 1928, with the musical, Blue Eyes, by Jerome Kern, starring acclaimed actress Miss Evelyn Laye. The Piccadilly Theatre was one of the largest theatres to be built in London, as its souvenir brochure claimed, 'If all the bricks used in the building were laid in a straight line, they would stretch from London to Paris'.

In its early days, the Piccadilly operated as a cinema and made entertainment history when it premiered the very first talking picture to be shown in Britain, The Singing Fool with Al Jolson. He also opened the Jazz Singer in 1928, appearing afterwards on-stage to sing Mammy.
Originally opened as The Piccadilly Theatre in a multi-purpose theatre able to house musicals, revue and films, the theatre reopened as The London Casino on 2nd April 1936 following a conversion into a cabaret restaurant which became particularly noted for it's lavish stage shows. During the Second World War it was used as a club for servicemen under the name The Queensbury All Services Club.
 
There have been a variety of Royal Shakespeare Company productions including Edward II, starring Ian McKellen. Henry Fonda also made his West End debut in the solo play, Clarence Darrow and Y. The 1990s witnessed an expansion in musicals, ballet and dance, notably the most successful commercial ballet season ever to play in the West End, with Adventures in Motion Pictures' Swan Lake.

The Piccadilly has been home to a season of plays directed by Sir Peter Hall, starring famous names such as Dame Judi Dench, Michael Pennington, Julia McKenzie and Eric Sykes. It has also hosted the smash-hit musical Spend Spend Spend starring the Olivier award-winning actress, Barbara Dickson, the sell-out run of Shockheaded Peter, as well as one of the most successful plays ever, Noises Off starring Lynn Redgrave.
