Duke of York's

About The Duke of York's

Named in honour of the future King George V, the Duke of York’s theatre opened in 1892 and has a long and illustrious history of classic revivals and new plays. Located in the heart of London’s West End, just north of Trafalgar Square, the Duke of York’s is characterised by its lavish interior of traditional theatrical gold, cream and red. The theatre has always programmed a large number of productions every year, meaning a fast turn-around between shows. It seats fewer than 700 people and is split over three levels.
