About
The Trafalgar Theatre brings a timeless charm blended seamlessly with modern performances right in the heart of London. Recently renovated, this Grade II listed building features an Art Deco interior that offers a cozy yet classic setting for various shows, from innovative productions to cherished classics like 'The 39 Steps'. With its central location near Trafalgar Square, the theatre is a convenient destination for families seeking a cultural outing.
The theatre seats 630, offering good views of the stage from most locations. Note that seats in the balcony can have obstructions, and the theatre has basic amenities with no dedicated nursing or extensive food options inside. It's advisable to have meals before the show as only snacks and drinks are available, and these are not kid-specific.
Things families love
Families enjoy Trafalgar Theatre for its close proximity to other central London attractions. The recent shows, particularly those like 'Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book', designed for younger audiences, offer an appealing blend of entertainment that warmly invites children. The theatre's size and intimate setting make it easy to engage younger children without overwhelming them.
Keep in mind
Bear in mind, seating may not be optimal for younger children as balcony railings can obstruct views. The theatre doesn’t offer extensive family-oriented amenities such as kids' meal options or full-scale baby changing facilities, so planning these needs in advance is essential.
