Savoy Theatre, Strand, London: the lower entrance foyer after restoration

NOTES: The original theatre interiors were designed by Frank Tugwell and Basil Ionides was responsible for the decoration. Whitfield Partners were responsible for the restoration in 1993.
Palace Theatre (formerly the Royal English Opera House), Cambridge Circus, London
RIBA3834
NOTES: Built originally as a full scale opera house for Richard D'Oyly Carte to designs by the builder G. H. Holloway and the architect T. E. Collcutt. The building opened in January 1891 with the opera Ivanhoe by Sir Arthur Sullivan. But opera was not a successful venture and it re-opened in December 1892 as the Palace Theatre.
