### **The history of Theatre Royal Drury Lane**
Theatre Royal Drury Lane has a rich history dating back to 1663, making it the oldest theatre site in London still in use. Over centuries, the theatre has seen legendary performances, royal patrons, and four different reconstructions. Charles II granted the original licence, and it has since survived fires, wartime closures, and changing theatrical tastes.
From hosting Shakespearean plays to the premieres of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s classics, the Drury Lane legacy is deeply woven into the fabric of London theatre. It has long been considered a birthplace for theatrical innovation and British stage talent.
Theatre Royal Drury Lane has been called one of the world's most haunted theatres. The appearance of almost any one of the handful of ghosts that are said to frequent the theatre signals good luck for an actor or production. The most famous ghost is the "Man in Grey," who appears dressed as a nobleman of the late 18th century: powdered hair beneath a tricorne hat, a dress jacket and cloak or cape, riding boots and a sword. Legend says that the Man in Grey is the ghost of a knife-stabbed man whose skeletal remains were found within a walled-up side passage in 1848.
