Venue Description

The Piccadilly Theatre is part of Ambassador Theatre Group and currently home to Annie. At it's grand opening on 27th April 1928 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 recent years the Piccadilly has housed critically acclaimed productions of Jersey Boys, Guys and Dolls starring Ewan McGregor, Grease, Ghost the Musical, the world premier of Viva Forever!, as well as Dirty Dancing.
