The Old Vic is London’s independent not-for-profit theatre, a world leader in creativity and entertainment, recently being hailed as ‘London’s most eclectic and frequently electrifying theatre’.

The Old Vic is mercurial: it can transform into a theatre in the round, a space for music and comedy, has played host to opera, dance, cinema, music hall, classical dramas, variety, clowns, big spectacles and novelty acts. It was the original home of the English National Opera, the Sadler’s Wells dance company and the National Theatre. It’s also been a tavern, a college, a coffee house, a lecture hall and a meeting place.
