HISTORY |
The Savoy Theatre
The first theatre on this site, also called The Savoy Theatre, was designed by C J Phipps and opened on 10th October, 1881. It's main entrance was on to The Embankment looking towards The River Thames. The adjacent Savoy Hotel was built in 1889. Both the theatre and hotel were financed by Richard D'Oyly Carte from the profits of Gilbert and Sullivan's operettas. The theatre's entrance was moved to it's current position on Savoy Court, off The Strand, in 1902. Savoy Court, which forms the forecourt to both the hotel and theatre, is the only road in Britain where traffic is required by law to drive on the right hand side - this was originally conferred as a special priviledge by Parliament in order that visitors to the Savoy Theatre would be let out of their carriage straight into the theatre.
