The Olivier Suite at the Theatre Royal

The Olivier Suite is the new main Reception Room at the Theatre Royal, fully equipped for a range of events from meetings and dinners to receptions and training. And the Theatre’s new bistro, Caffè Teatro, offers a wide variety of menus to suit each of these occasions.

Our new room is named to celebrate the centenary of Laurence Olivier (1907-2007) one of the greatest actors of the twentieth century and a great leader and institution-builder who established the National Theatre and Chichester Festival Theatre among his many achievements.

Rates for the room are detailed below. The room is free to the 22 Business Members of the Theatre Royal.



The Olivier connection

Richard Olivier, Laurence Olivier’s son, opened the new room at a special champagne lunch event and this is the beginning of a new partnership between the Theatre Royal and Olivier Mythodrama, Richard’s company. The company provides world-class leadership programmes exploring purpose and meaning, authenticity and connection in leadership.

The company helps to develop leaders who have vision, passion and presence. It aims to liberate hidden potential, helping clients to find meaning and purpose in work. The leaders it develops can then be creative and pragmatic, caring a courageous, delivering both short-term benefits and holding the line for a successful sustainable future.

Olivier Mythodrama clients include Daimler Chrysler, the Cabinet Office and the BBC.
