Located, appropriately enough, in the heart of Theatreland, the Theatre Museum is dedicated to promoting the performing arts. In addition to housing the National Video Archive of Stage Performance, the museum boasts a staggering collection of over one million programmes and playbills, puppets, photographs and props relating to theatre, ballet, dance and music. Visitors can participate in workshops, makeovers, tours and try their hand at animation and puppetry. There is lots of memorabilia from old theatres and stage sets, which creates a very special theatrical ambience. The Theatre Museum opens 10:00-18:00 Tues-Sun. Closed 24-26 Dec.
