National Theatre

Live Status & Taxi Transfers

The National Theatre is a prominent Brutalist structure situated on London's South Bank, designed by architect Denys Lasdun and opened in 1976. The complex consists of three separate auditoriums: the Olivier, the Lyttelton, and the Dorfman, each tailored for different staging requirements. Constructed from board-marked reinforced concrete, the building utilizes a series of interconnected horizontal terraces that function as public walkways. It serves as the primary production hub for the UK’s National Theatre company, housing extensive onsite workshops for set construction, prop making, and costume design. The venue remains a key example of mid-century functionalist architecture.
