The London Pavilion was first opened in 1862, and through the eighties and nineties flourished as a Music Hall. All the top-liners appeared there: the great MacDermott, Arthur Roberts, Eugene Stratton, Marie Lloyd, and later Harry Tate, Little Tich, and other stars of that vintage. Beatrice Lillie made her first appearance there in 1914. But it was not until C.B. Cochran took over the lease in 1918 that the 'Pav's' theatrical history began. Here he staged some of his best revues on that tiny stage, beginning with Delysia in 'As You Were.' Noel Coward's 'This Year of Grace' and 'On With the Dance' were typical. Artists as diverse as Marie Burke, Max Wall, and Tillie Losch first appeared at the 'Pav.' Latterly the theatre reverted without success to Non-Stop Variety, and on April 7, 1934, closed to make way for a £50,000 cinema.
