Train
Call + 44 (0) 8457 484950 for rail enquiries. London has different
train stations (Euston, Kings Cross, Paddington, Victoria, Waterloo),
all well connected with the tube (=underground)
Tube
Please find a London
Underground map here: http://tube.tfl.gov.uk/content/tubemap/
The Theatre is within walking distance from the tube stations of:
Green Park on the Victoria, Jubilee and Piccadilly
lines
Piccadilly Circus on
the Piccadilly and Bakeloo lines
To travel with tube or
bus, the
cheapest way is to buy a pre-payed Oyster Card. You can have it at the
ticket office of any tube station, with a deposit of 5£
(refundable if you give the card back when you leave London). You can
then top-up your card with some money (you decide how much) using cash
or credit cards at any ticket office. When you travel, touch in and out
your cards at both ends of the journey and it gets charged. This
is the cheapest way to travel around: for example a one-way tube ticket
in zone 1-2 costs 1.5£ on the card, instead of 3£
when bought at the ticket office.
