ABOUT THE THEATRE
His Majesty’s Theatre is located in Haymarket, City of Westminster, London. The current building dates back to 1897, although the theatre itself was established back in 1705 by renowned playwright John Vanbrugh. Initially, it was an opera house because at that time, there were only two London theatres that had the right to stage drama plays that were unaccompanied by music. The name of the theatre changed with the gender of the monarch and it frequently switched from His Majesty to Her Majesty’s Theatre.
As part of the theatre design, Tree had included a flat for himself under the copper dome of the roof and in 1904 he instigated a drama school in this Dome Room, which eventually became the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
His Majesty's Theatre is the current home of Phantom of The Opera which opened at this venue back in 1986
