Odeon Cinemas |
LODEON are pleased to announce that their ownership changed hands on 7th March 2003 to a consortium of investors with the principle partners being WestLB (a major European Bank), The Entertainment Group and Robert Tchenguiz of Rotch.
Under the new ownership, ODEON looks forward to building further on its market leading position.
Odeon is by far the UK's largest cinema chain. Synonymous with cinema, Odeon boasts more cinemas, screens, seats and customers than any other cinema chain in the UK.
Odeon was founded by Oscar Deutsch in 1930 and was acquired by J Arthur Rank in 1942. Odeon remained under the ownership of the Rank Group for a further 58 years.
Odeon was later purchased by Cinven on 21st February 2000 and merged with the ABC cinema chain. With all ABC sites re-vitalised and re-branded Odeon, the resulting "superchain" of cinemas continued the Odeon success story, experiencing 3 record years of trading in a market which has demonstrated strong and resilient growth.
On 7th March 2003 the ownership of Odeon changed hands. The new ownership being comprised of a consortium of investors with the principal partners being WestLB, The Entertainment Group and Robert Tchenguiz of Rotch.
With the new ownership in place Odeon remains well placed to pro-actively optimise any future market developments and ensure that it retains and builds on its strong brand leadership position.

UCI Cinemas |
UCI is one of the world's leading cinema exhibition groups. The Group is a joint venture owned equally by Universal and Paramount, both of whom have a great deal of heritage and a deep understanding of the entertainment industry. UCI specialise in the multiplex segment of the film exhibition market and we have achieved a leading position in all the major territories in which we operate.
UCI has cinemas in the UK, Ireland, Austria, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Japan, Taiwan and Brazil and we are actively seeking opportunities all over the world.
We are committed to maintaining our status as the pre-eminent force in cinema exhibition around the world. As competition intensifies on a global basis, UCI is responding with a new generation of cinema that includes premier seating and bar facilities, digital projection and IMAX screens. UCI constantly strive to develop and offer our guests what we believe will become the cinema of the future.
In the UK, the concept of new generation cinema is leading developments for UCI in the rest of the world and has already been introduced!
UCI Norwich opened its doors on November 26 1999 and proved its popularity from day one. The Gallery at Norwich was our first premier offering. It was designed to give guests a choice of cinema environment and The Gallery package includes admittance to an exclusive bar with a variety of free refreshments. Guests to The Gallery sit in their luxurious seats - wider than the standard seats. The concept of The Gallery has since been introduced to UCI Maidenhead and will also feature at thefilmworks, Manchester and Greenwich.
Now open in Manchester, our second 20 screen cinema - thefilmworks located at The Printworks. This cinema not only includes a Gallery offering and Digital Projection, but is also the only multiplex operation in the UK to offer IMAX. And at 23 metres high by 26 metres wide, this is the UK's largest cinema screen! Our cinema at The Printworks is the first thefilmworks - next generation cinema.
These developments are truly state of the art technologies and they will ensure that UCI Cinemas continue to be a leading influence in the world of film exhibition.

Warner Village Cinemas |
Today's multiplex cinemas combine decades of cinema management and operational expertise with the very latest technology to create a magical movie experience for cinema-goers.
At Warner Village Cinemas we go out of our way to make our customers feel as comfortable as they do in their own front room... . with all the atmosphere, involvement and excitement that you only get by going to the cinema.
Stadium seating gives everyone an uninterrupted view of the big screen, and the seats themselves have been specially designed for maximum comfort, with cup holder arm-rests ensuring your soft drink is easy to reach. Digital sound and the most advanced projection give you all the thrill of feeling right in the middle of the action.
And only a multiplex cinema can deliver so much movie choice. With anything from 6 to 30 screens in one location you can be sure of seeing the latest mainstream blockbusters and family hits. But more than that, it means we can screen an even wider selection catering to art-house and other cultural tastes. So the whole family can enjoy a night out at a Warner Village Cinema - and all see a different film!
From the moment you make your booking - by Internet, phone, or in person - to the moment you leave the cinema, your comfort and enjoyment have been our first concern.
Warner Village Cinemas...Where cinema comes to life!

LONDON THEATRE |
OVERVIEW
Generally, the theatres are divided into West End , Fringe and repertory like The National Theatre (NT).
WEST END
These theatres are commercial, mainly putting on big productions with a lot of money spent on them. Some of the shows can be long runners, particularly musicals like "Phantom of the Opera". There can also be long running plays as well, like "The Mousetrap". Prices can be high, sometimes as much as £50 for top price tickets, and much more if buying from an agency. However, the cheapest can be as low as £7 depending on the day of the week (although it may not be a great view). The West End does have a lot of musicals playing, but there are still many good plays featuring superb actors/actress . I don't think you will find as much diversity anywhere else in the world.
NT and GLOBE THEATRE
These theatres, National Theatre (NT) and the Globe Theatre are two of the most popular repertoire companies in London. The NT is subsidised. This means they are not as commercial as the West End. They can take a risk with new and unknown writers, and plays that may not appeal to a wide audience. Having said that, probably the best plays are shown here. Some get transferred to the West End if they are very successful.
The Royal National have three theatres, The Olivier, The Lyttelton and The Cottesloe. Most performances are in repertory, so you can see quite a few plays in one week. The Globe Theatre season is performed from April to September.
THE FRINGE
These plays are generally in smaller theatres, mostly pub theatres in and around London. Some can be very small and run as clubs, where a membership needs to be paid. However most of these theatres include a days membership in the price of the ticket.
You can see some superb plays in these theatres and prices are much lower than the West End. |
