Theatre, Comedy and Cinema
London has enjoyed a reputation for quality theatre since the time of Shakespeare, and despite the continuing prevalence of fail-safe blockbuster musicals and revenue-spinning star vehicles, the city still provides a platform for innovation. The comedy scene in London goes from strength to strength, so much so that the capital now boasts more comedy venues than any other city in the world, while comedians who have made the transition to television also stage shows in major theatres. Cinema is rather less healthy, for London's repertory film theatres are a dying breed, edged out by the multiscreen complexes which show mainstream Hollywood fare some months behind America. There are a few excellent independent cinemas, though, including the National Film Theatre, which is the focus of the richly varied London Film Festival in November. Current details of what's on in all these areas can be found in a number of publications, the most comprehensive being the weekly Time Out. The Guardian 's "The Guide" section (free with the paper on Saturdays) and Friday's Evening Standard are other good sources.
