Theatreland - heart of the performing arts in London.
Alhambra Theatre
On this site between 1854 and 1936 stood the Alhambra Theatre, a centre of London entertainment and famous in its day for music hall, theatrical spectaculars and ballet productions. In 1919 Diaghilev's Ballets Russes performed here.
A joint venture by the City of Westminster and the Society of West End Theatre.
Site: Alhambra Theatre (1 memorial)

2017: The building is behind scaffolding and the, very 60s, front is being reclad. Let's hope the plaque survives.
2024: Richard Tincknell has recently walked past and reports that the plaque was not on the new facade, so we've marked it 'lost'.
