A theatre in London, England. It opened in 1818 as the Royal Coburg Theatre on the south bank of the River Thames, away from the theatres of the West End. In 1833 it was renamed the Royal Victoria Theatre after the future Queen Victoria, and was affectionately known as the Old Vic. It mostly staged popular plays, but in 1912 Lilian Baylis took over as manager and began staging high-quality Shakespeare plays. She died in 1937, and the theatre was destroyed in an air raid during World War II, but reopened in 1950 and continued to present Shakespeare's plays.
