About
ABOUT
Whilst the New London is a modern building there has been entertainment on the site since Elizabethan times. The theatre is close to both Covent Garden and Holborn tubes.
The first production in the current building was a television recording of Marlene Dietrich’s one-woman show and the first full production was The Unknown Soldier and his Wife in 1973, written by and starring Peter Ustinov. Subsequent productions include Grease with Richard Gere, Bruce Forsyth’s one-man show and Sheila Hancock in Deja Revue.
HISTORY
Although the New London is a modern building, there has been a place of entertainment on the site since Elizabethan times. Nell Gwynne, mistress of Charles II, was associated with the tavern here which by the end of the 17th century was called the Great Mogul.
