Watch: Andrew Lloyd Webber opens Drury Lane theatre after US$80mil revamp


By AGENCY

British musical impresario Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber reopened his Theatre Royal Drury Lane on Friday after a two-year US$80mil (RM338mil) restoration, aiming to keep the historic cultural site open all day and not just for performances.

The theatre, known as The Lane, boasts a revamped auditorium, swanky staircases, a champagne bar inspired by the Pantheon in Rome, an all-day dining area as well as a cocktail bar named after society photographer Cecil Beaton.
