Venue info

Wyndham's Theatre i London är en av de scener som bevakas av British Theatre. Utforska kommande föreställningar, praktisk information om teatern och tips för biljettbokning inför ditt besök. Wyndham’s Theatre slog upp portarna den 16 november 1899. Premiärkvällen bjöd på en nyuppsättning av David Garrick, med självaste prinsen av Wales (den blivande kung Edward VII) på plats i publiken. Familjen du Maurier hade länge starka band till teatern; Gerald ledde verksamheten under en 15-årsperiod med start 1910, och hans dotter Daphne satte upp sin pjäs The Years Between här 1940. En av teaterns största succéer genom tiderna var musikalpastischen The Boy Friend, som flyttades hit från Players’ Theatre. Föreställningen spelades hela 2 078 gånger innan den gick vidare till Broadway. År 1972 rönte man ytterligare framgångar på musikalsidan med Godspell, som spelades i två år. Under 1990-talet gästades Wyndham’s scen av en rad hyllade skådespelare och världsstjärnor, däribland Maggie Smith (i den brittiska premiären av Edward Albees Tre långa kvinnor), Dame Diana Rigg (Medea), Albert Finney (Art) och Madonna (Up For Grabs). Sedan Delfont-Mackintosh tog över driften 2005 har teatern fortsatt att leverera publiksuccéer på löpande band. Här har man bland annat kunnat se hyllade produktioner som Sunday in the Park with George (från Menier Chocolate Factory), The History Boys (från National Theatre) samt en ettårig gästspelssäsong från Donmar Warehouse med fyra pjäser i regi av Michael Grandage. Idag befäster Wyndham’s sin position som en av Londons främsta scener för banbrytande dramatik och musikaler.

Från skaparna av Prima Facie – Rosamund Pike bjuder på en ”fängslande och föränderlig gestaltning” som en egensinnig dommare vid Crown Court i London. Hennes världar kolliderar när det otänkbara händer på hemmaplan. En gripande skildring av rättvisa, moderskap och modern maskulinitet. Bryan Cranston återvänder till West End i Arthur Millers gripande amerikanska klassiker. Under regi av Tony- och Olivier Award-vinnaren Ivo van Hove har All My Sons på Wyndham's Theatre haft premiär till femstjärniga recensioner: 'en magnifik, skakande uppsättning' (Guardian), 'en häpnadsväckande och djupt rörande teaterupplevelse' (Evening Standard). Spelas under en strikt begränsad period – måste sluta den 7 mars 2026. Ewan McGregor och Elizabeth Debicki spelar huvudrollerna i My Master Builder – ett drama fyllt av kärlek, ambition och svek.

History

Wyndham's Theatre opened on 16 November 1899. Its first performance was a revival of David Garrick and the Prince of Wales (future King Edward VII) was present in the audience. The du Maurier family had a close association with the theatre, with Gerald conducting a 15-year association from 1910 and his daughter Daphne presenting her play The Years Between on the stage in 1940.

One of the biggest successes at the theatre was The Boy Friend, a musical pastiche that had moved from the Players’ Theatre. The show ran for 2,078 performances and transferred to Broadway. 1972 would see another musical success with Godspell (which ran for 2 years).

Many esteemed actors and celebrities graced the Wyndham's stage throughout the 1990s, including Maggie Smith (in the British premiere of Edward Albee’s Three Tall Women), Dame Diana Rigg (Medea), Albert Finney (Art) and Madonna (Up For Grabs).

After Delfont-Mackintosh took over the theatre in 2005, the venue went from strength to strength, with successful transfers of Sunday in the Park with George (Menier Chocolate Factory), The History Boys (National Theatre), and a 12-month season from the Donmar Warehouse (presenting 4 plays directed by Michael Grandage).

Wyndham's continues to host cutting edge plays and musicals.

Absolutely appalling experience. We bought two standing tickets for a play and arrived just 8 minutes after the stated start time (due to traffic congestion), only to be made to watch the play from the bar on a TV screen. This is completely unacceptable. They claimed this was their policy for latecomers and part of their T&Cs, but nowhere was this (watching the play from a TV screen) stated when we booked the tickets, not in the confirmation email. It feels misleading and unfair. Also, what musical or play actually starts exactly on the dot? None. This policy shows zero understanding or consideration for customers (especially when standing or sitting near the door, without disturbing anyone) The service was bad, the staff were unhelpful, and the whole experience was incredibly disappointing. We paid for a live theatre experience and were denied it. Needless to say, that I left the show earlier because I didn’t have any pleasure to spend 2 hours at bar. I would give 0 stars if possible. I will never come back here again.

The seats were fairly comfortable and visibility was great. There were plenty of friendly staff available to help and answer questions. Beautiful space, amazing play! The acoustics were quite good. As a first time attendee at Wyndham theatre, I was confused because all of my emails came from Delfont Macintosh, which is the group that owns the theatre, but NOT where you should go to see the play!

Located right in the heart of London near Leicester Square, this is one of the city’s historic theatres and the atmosphere is genuinely wonderful. It really does take you back in time. I have had the chance to see several great productions here, most recently All My Sons, which I thoroughly enjoyed. That said, one thing to be aware of is the seating. The legroom is very tight, and it can feel quite uncomfortable if you are sitting for a longer performance. Definitely something to keep in mind when booking.
