The Savoy Theatre opened it's doors on 10th October 1881 with a transfer from the Opera Comique of Gilbert and Sullivan's opera Patience. Built at the instigation of Impresario Richard D'Oyly Carte, who wanted his own theatre in order to stage the works of Gilbert and Sullivan, the Savoy became famous as the first public building in the world to be lit by incandescent electric lights.
I got one!

You did indeed. The Savoy, it is.

BTW, Chris and Lisa... How did you know it was London?

The cars drive on the left side of the street so England would have been my guess.

But I was screwed. I couldn't name a theater either in London's West End or New York's Broadway. I can barely name any of the theaters in San Francisco's theater district and I used to work there.

Just looking at it from this height makes me dizzy:

It looks like it's on an athletic field somewhere.

Bus Lane. It was familiar from our recent trip. I also suspected it was the theater district, but i couldn't find anything that matched.

The elementary school I used to work at had the US map painted on the playground. Is "an elementary school somewhere" a guess?
