Olympia Theatre Update

A team from Trafalgar including Andrew Hill, Emily O’Dell and Jason Culverwell, visited the site of the £1.3 billion London Olympia development this week, where TE will open a brand-new flagship venue, the 1,575-seat Olympia Theatre.

It will be the largest new permanent theatre build of its kind to open in London since the National Theatre in 1976. The team met with the architects and design team to check out the shell build, where the auditorium, proscenium and stage are beginning to take shape. Exciting times!
