Adelphi Theatre Theater

One of the major West End theaters, the Adelphi Theatre was founded in 1806, but the current building was built in 1930 on the Strand. Reflecting its construction year, the Adelphi has an Art Deco style, though it is more minimalist in appearance than its grand old neighbors.

Productions at the Adelphi Theatre have included Chicago, Evita, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and, most recently, Sweeney Todd. An audience of 1,500 can watch the big-name productions on most days of the week, usually Monday through Saturday, choosing seats in the stalls, dress circle, or upper circle, though some upper circle seats are designated “obstructed view.” Box seats at the Adelphi Theatre are also available by making direct arrangements with the theater.

Tickets for the Adelphi Theatre are available through many online brokers, and a limited number of inexpensive same-day tickets are available before performances. Bars and snack vendors service the theater, and the audience may enjoy their refreshments at their seats. The Adelphi Theatre is located near the Covent Garden and Embankment tube stops.
