The Prince of Wales Theatre
is a theatre located on Coventry Street, London.
The first theatre on the site opened in January 1884
when C.J. Phipps built the "Prince's Theatre", and was
renamed the "Prince of Wales Theatre" in 1886 after the
future Edward VII.
After 50 years, the theatre's 800 seats were deemed
insufficient for productions of the day, and it was
demolished. On June 17, 1937, Gracie Fields laid the
foundation stone of the new theatre, designed by Robert
Cromie, and opening on October 27 that year.
Refurbishment was carried out in 2004 to increase the
seating capacity slightly to 1160 seats, and is now home
to the ABBA musical Mamma Mia.
