About The Venue
The Peacock Theatre, opened in 1960 as a lecture theatre for the LSE, was converted into a proscenium arch theatre. Managed by Sadler's Wells since 1996, it is renowned as London's premier venue for international and national dance, alongside musicals and family shows. Its modern, functional design ensures excellent sightlines and a comfortable, intimate atmosphere for its 999-seat capacity.
