Savoy Theatre
The Savoy Theatre London made history by being the world's first public building to be entirely illuminated by electricity. The purpose-built theatre opened its doors on October 10, 1881, as ‘The Savoy’, showcasing Gilbert and Sullivan's ‘Patience or Bunthorne's Bride’. The theatre was specifically designed to showcase Gilbert & Sullivan comic operas, which subsequently became known as the ‘Savoy Operas’, built by Richard D'Oyly Carte. Over time, the theatre has undergone various renovations. In the late 20th century, a proposal to construct a new theatre was suggested. However, it was overruled, and the decision was made to restore the building as faithfully as possible to its original 1929 design.
