THEATRES AND INTERTAINMENT IN ENGLAND

There are a lot of places of interests in England. Almost every city and a large town have a museum of arts, archaeology, natural history and a theater. But let's make a special focus on London - center of entertainments and cultural life of the country. In London most places of entertainment are concentrated in the West End and Soho, where you can find many concerts halls, nightclubs, theaters and international restaurants. West End has some of the best theaters in the world: theater land lies between Covent Garden and Haymarket. There is something for everybody – from a play by the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Barbican Theater, to Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap (this play began in 1952 and thousands of visitors see it every year). The Covent Garden Theater is famous for opera and ballet performances. The best English singers and ballet dancers are playing there. The National Theater shows drama.

Some theaters put on modern plays and at others you can sometimes enjoy good musicals, folk songs or concerts of pop-music. There is a system of "Club" theaters where you can see both well-known and financially risky experimental plays. A performance is produced both by professionals and amateurs for one or two weeks and any profit from this goes to pay for the next production.

There are 2,500 museums and galleries open to the public in Britain, receiving about 110 million visitors a year. The national museums and galleries, many of them located in London, have some of the worlds most important and exciting collections. London has 400 art galleries, ranging from historic public collections to small public and commercial galleries. The national collections are housed at the National Gallery, the Tate Gallery and the National Portrait Gallery. The British Museum is the biggest museum in Britain with its vast collection of artistic and ethnographic material from all over the world. Museum of Madame Tussaud's is famous for its people made from wax. When you are tired of looking at buildings, you can sit or walk in one of London's beautiful parks such as Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, Regent's Park, St. James' Park. Britain's artistic and cultural heritage is one of the richest in the world. Around 650 professional arts festivals take place in Britain each year. The most famous among them is the annual Edinburgh International Festival.
