2005-11-17 17:07:11 来源：未知 |
The Palace Theatre in Manchester is a commercial theater that promotes large scale touring shows. It is a popular venue for western musicals such as 'Les Miserables', 'Cats' and 'Miss Saigon'. The history of Palace Theater in Manchester dates back to the Greek immigrant Victor Charas, who had a desire to run a grand theatre. Besides all the ups and downs, this theatre still remains a heritage for all kinds of theatrical performances in Manchester. With a grand opening on 18th May 1891, the first ballet 'Cleopatra' was performed to a capacity audience. Until 2004, it was the home of Les Misérables for eighteen years. However, its initial elitist presentations failed to gain popular appeal resulting in poor ticket sales. Then, bowing to the inevitable economic pressures, it broadened its scope to include more popular performers and performances. This turned out to be a successful move.
Today Palace Theatre is a beautifully restored 870-seat professional performing arts center. In an area that once had 22 theatres, this historic building is now the sole survivor of 'The Great White Way'. Palace theatre is once again a center of cultural activity and Victor Charas' vision remains alive. The theatre also produces Christmas Pantomimes, which is part of a great British tradition. It has seen television personalities in leading roles and also been witness to shows hosted by big celebrities such as Victoria Wood, Les Dawson and Morecambe & Wise. It is now one of the best-equipped and popular theatres outside Manchester with record-breaking crowds thronging to see its shows. Prices of tickets range from around £30.00 to £5.00 and are also dependent on the show and seat. However, booking several months ahead is recommended for some popular shows at the Palace Theater in Manchester.
曼彻斯特的皇宫戏院是一个商业性促进了大规模的旅游活动。它是西方音乐流行的通道，比如：“悲惨世界”，“猫”和“西贡小姐”。皇宫戏院的历史就要上溯到希腊的移民Victor Charas，他想建造一个伟大的戏院。抛开所有的兴衰成败，如今这座戏院仍然保存着各种戏剧作品的宝贵遗产。第一场芭蕾舞“埃及艳后”在1891年5月18日的盛大开幕上演出。一直到2004年，它已经连续18年上演“悲惨世界”。
