Inscription

“London Coliseum Home of English National Opera since 1968. The London Coliseum, opened in 1904, was originally conceived as a variety theatre. Sir Oswald Stoll wanted a revolving dome to top his sumptous theatre, but this being deemed illegal, he settled instead for the flashing electric lights familiar today.”
