The Palace Theatre of Varieties opened on Whit Monday 1891 and cost its owners the then colossal sum of £40,500. In the late 1970’s the Palace Theatre underwent a major refurbishment and re-opened in 1981 with Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar and has since then retained its position as the premier provincial touring venue.

Q:
Does anyone know how to contact the Palace Theatre Manchester. We nned to know the running time of J C Superstar to plan our journey home but cannot find this info anywhere.There is a premium rate number listed 0844. if you ring that it gives you another premium rate number which gives an answerphone message. I have emailed twice well in advance (2 weeks ago) and had no reply. I would not recommend this theatre. For the prices they charge I think they could do much better.
