The Bristol Hippodrome, the city's very own West End theatre, opened its doors on the 16th December 1912. It is a superb example of the grand architecture of the late Victorian era. A unique feature within the theatre, is the dome in the roof above the stalls, which can be opened to reveal the sky above. Now that the auditorium is air-cooled the dome is rarely used, although it is the only functioning operating dome still working today in the UK.
The theatre today offers the full spectrum of live theatrical entertainment. From top West End shows Cats, Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Beauty and the Beast, Blood Brothers and Grease, to name more than a few, through to regular visits from the best in Opera (WNO & Ellen Kent) and Ballet (ENB & Ballet International), Comedy, Childrens' Shows, Concerts and even the Circus!
