EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and elegance of the Apollo Theatre in its early days, as it stood proudly on Shaftesbury Avenue in London's West End in February 1901. Designed by the renowned theatre architect Henry Lowenfeld, the Apollo Theatre opened its doors to the public on the 21st of February with a production of The Belle of Bohemia by George Lederer. The exterior of the theatre is a stunning example of late-Victorian architecture, with its ornate facade adorned with intricate carvings and elaborate mouldings. The theatre's name, "Apollo," is prominently displayed above the entrance, paying homage to the Greek god of music, poetry, art, and light. The theatre's marquee proudly announces the opening production, inviting passersby to come and experience the magic of live theatre. The photograph captures the theatre in all its glory, with the bright lights illuminating the stage door and the surrounding trees casting dappled shadows on the pavement. The bustling activity of Shaftesbury Avenue can be seen in the background, adding to the sense of excitement and anticipation surrounding the opening of this new theatre. The Apollo Theatre quickly became a beloved institution in London's theatre scene, hosting a range of productions over the decades that followed. Today, it continues to be an important cultural landmark, attracting audiences from around the world who come to experience the magic of live performance in this historic venue.
