London has an elaborate and thriving theatre scene. While most of the world has moved on to the screen medium, the largely orthodox London performance art arena has concentrated on the proper development of theatre through the West End. This initiative was met with an overwhelming response and thus came up the ‘The Half Price Ticket Booth’ in the 1980s. Over the next few decades, the booth changed its position a number of times within Leicester Square without losing even an ounce of its significance. Later on, this booth was rebranded as the TKTS booth to maintain consistency with its New York counterparts. Every bit of profit made by the TKTS Leicester Square booth goes to the Theatre Development Fund, to be used to promote this legendary art.
