History
A fascinating history...

Wilton's is the world's oldest and last surviving grand music hall.
Here, in the 1850s and 60s, classical overtures, dance, circus acts, opera, choral, and folk songs were enormously popular, long before "old time music hall" evolved. John Wilton built this theatre behind his public house, The Prince of Denmark in 1858, in Graces Alley, E1.
Kreutzer Quartet resident at Wilton's
Since 2007 the Kreutzer Quartet has been in residence at Wilton's. The quartet is a unique combination of soloists, composers, lecturers and communicators. This year we have planned a slection of beautiful concerts to look out for.
The players are Peter Sheppard Skaerved - Violin, Mihailo Trandafilovski, Neil Heyde - Cello and Morgan Goff - Viola.
