Charing Cross Music Hall, Underground theatre venue beneath Charing Cross Station, London, England

The Charing Cross Theatre occupies two levels within railway arches, featuring a 275-seat performance space and a ground-floor bar near the box office.

Originally established in 1866 by Giovanni and Carlo Gatti, this entertainment venue replaced the Hungerford Hall and operated under different names including Gattis-in-The-Arches.

The theatre maintains its Victorian music hall heritage through Sunday performances while presenting contemporary plays, musicals, and theatrical productions throughout the week.

Located steps from Charing Cross Station, the venue includes wheelchair access, guide dog accommodations, and a bar serving refreshments before performances.

Rudyard Kipling frequented this establishment during his youth, drawing inspiration for his Barrack-Room Ballads and writing 'My One and Only' for performers.
