  • Il Daly's Theatre era un teatro nella città di Westminster, Londra. Si trovava al 2 di Cranbourn Street, appena fuori Leicester Square. Fu aperto il 27 giugno 1893 e fu demolito nel 1937. Il teatro fu costruito e intitolato all'impresario americano Augustin Daly, ma egli non riuscì ad avere successo e tra il 1895 e il 1915 fu gestito dal produttore britannico George Edwardes, che presentò una serie di commedie musicali che rimasero in cartellone per molto tempo, tra cui The Geisha (1896) e adattamenti inglesi di operette, tra cui La vedova allegra (1907). Dopo la morte di Edwardes nel 1915 il Daly's ebbe un altro grande successo, The Maid of the Mountains (1917), che andò in scena per 1.352 produzioni, ma in seguito le fortune del teatro diminuirono; la commedia Sirocco (1927) di Noël Coward, fu un notevole fallimento. A metà degli anni trenta Leicester Square era ormai più conosciuta per i cinema. Il Daly's fu venduto alla Warner Brothers che lo demolì e sul sito fece erigere un grande cinema. (it)
