Entertainments

Speaking about the entertainment in London, it is necessary to pay special attention to theatres – the city is famous for its long-lasting tradition of theatre going, which doesn’t seem to weaken since Shakespearian times. There are over 40 major venues in the city, most of the houses are within the easy walk from the Leicester square.
The Globe, the reconstruction of the Shakespearian theatre, won overwhelming success, and the performances on the conventional stages look pale by comparison.

The Royal National Theatre and the RSC are famous theatres, staging mainly classical plays and musicals. Best for new plays are Royal Court, Ambassadors, Alberry, Duke of Yorks, Southwark Playhouse. Theatres on Shaftesbury Avenue feature mainstream dramas and classical plays. Many small extravagant theatres usually referred to as “the fringe” include such amusing places as Almeida, Donmar Warehouse, Soho Theatre, Hampstead.

The cinemas in London show mostly British films, underscoring European cinema, with rare exception to festivals, which are not that frequent bliss. The best cinemas to visit are Curzon Soho, Hoxton Square, and National Film Theatre.
