Royal Court Theatre

This theater, always a leader in provocative, cutting-edge drama, reopened in February 2000. In the 1950s, it staged the plays of the angry young men, notably John Osborne's then-sensational Look Back in Anger; earlier it debuted the plays of George Bernard Shaw. A recent work was The Beauty Queen of Leenane, which went on to win a Tony on Broadway. The theater is home to the English Stage Company.

Open: Box office 10am-6pm.Tickets £7-£26 ($11-$40).Tube: Sloane Sq.
