### The History of His Majesty’s Theatre
Originally founded in 1705 by architect and dramatist John Vanbrugh as the Queen’s Theatre, His Majesty’s Theatre is one of the oldest theatrical sites in London still in use. Over its long history, it has undergone multiple rebuilds and name changes—its title shifting in line with the gender of the reigning monarch. It became His Majesty’s Theatre once more following the accession of King Charles III in 2023.
Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, the venue was a leading opera house, hosting the London premieres of Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Handel’s Rinaldo. It later transitioned to drama and musical theatre, offering landmark productions including Chu Chin Chow and, more recently, The Phantom of the Opera. His Majesty’s Theatre London holds a central place in the legacy of West End performance history, shaped by centuries of memorable productions and dramatic reinventions.
