London Hippodrome - Backstage

Click to return to Front Page Click to see Ground Plan

 

Backstage at the Hippodrome is less sad than FOH as Theatres Backstage are always pretty grim.

There is no change here really, there are vast areas of unused space, corridors, offices and dressing rooms, all as they were fifty years ago.

Even the Elephant run still exists and parts of the original water tank from when the Theatre was a circus.
