Touring the Theater District

Today we travelled to Westminster for a tour of the west end theater district in the center of London. We met our local tour guide, Karen Scott Goulding, at Embankment tube station near The Strand, and the tour took us to several famous landmarks related to the London theater including the Royal Theater on Drury Lane, The Royal Opera House, and St Paul’s church in Covent Garden where the work and lives of many famous stage actors are commemorated.
