The Duke of York's Theatre is a longstanding West End theatre situated on St. Martin's Lane in Westminster City. The stage originally opened as the 'Trafalgar Square Theatre' back in 1892, premiering with the comic opera 'The Wedding Eve'. The original name for this theatre did not last long. It was changed to 'The Trafalgar Theatre' in 1894 and then finally to the Duke of York's Theatre in 1895, which was a tribute to King George V. The world-famous architect Walter Emden designed the theatre. When it first opened, it had 900 seats across 3 levels - Stalls, Royal Circle and Upper Circle - with several boxes on each level.
Seating Capacity: 350

The show was fantastic, full of energy, humour and so engaging. Sir Ian and John were outdtanding as were the cast (and sets). The ticketing process went smoothly from beginning to end.
I couldnt find my e ticket and immediately send me to the boxoffice. So helpful and polite. An amazing show with great actors. Oh i totally trust all the team and i ll be back for sure!
The ticketing system was fine albeit a little complex to retrieve given the use of more than 1 media channel is both email and also WhatsApp. Using just one channel would have been less confusing. The show itself was okay but not as good as I had been expected. No real story seemed to be a string of unrelated sketches and songs, loosely strung together under the name and theme of Mother Goose
