History
Formerly the Trafalgar Studios and the Whitehall Theatre, Trafalgar Theatre is a contemporary venue that is scheduled to open in Spring 2021. Previously split into two studio spaces, Trafalgar Studios 1 and 2, the venue is being redeveloped into a single, larger theatre space.
Trafalgar Studios 1 opened in 2004 with the RSC’s Othello, and presented a number of successful works for the next decade. The venue truly stepped on the map in 2013 with a season of work by director Jamie Lloyd, Trafalgar Transformed, which saw James McAvoy take on the title role in Macbeth. Lloyd returned to the theatre for a second season in 2015, in which McAvoy returned in The Ruling Class, and Martin Freeman lead a production of Shakespeare's Richard III.
Several Olivier-Award winning productions have played at the Trafalgar Studios 1, including a new adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts in 2013 and Robert Icke's reimagining of Aeschylus' Oresteia in 2015. Hollywood star Orlando Bloom appeared in Studio 1 in 2018 in a production of dark comedy Killer Joe.
Trafalgar Studio 2 presented intimate, innovative new works from national and international companies. Studio 2 opened in 2005 with Peter Arnott's Cyprus and went on to showcase other successes, including the Olivier nominated La Boheme, the hit comedy The Play That Goes Wrong, and a season of work from the Donmar Warehouse.
The Trafalgar Theatre opened with the smash-hit jukebox musical Jersey Boys in summer 2021, and it ran until 4 January 2024.
In January 2024, A Mirror starring Jonny Lee Miller and Tanya Reynolds transferred to the Trafalgar Theatre from the Almeida Theatre, followed by a revival of People, Places and Things starring Denise Gough. In the Summer of 2024, The 39 Steps, returned to the West End, playing at the theatre for a limited time, followed by The Duchess starring Jodie Comer. In February, the 90s cult classic screen-to-stage adaptation of Clueless hit the stage, as it made its West End debut.
Clueless played its final performances in summer 2025, making way for the UK premiere of Clarkston starring Heartstopper's Joe Locke, followed by the West End transfer of Cole Escola's Oh, Mary!
