Camden Palace Theatre : ウィキペディア英語版
KOKO (music venue)

KOKO (formerly The Music Machine and Camden Palace) is a concert venue and former theatre in Camden Town, London, England. The building was known as Camden Palace from 1982 until its 2004 purchase and extensive restoration led by Oliver Bengough and Mint Entertainment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.designweek.co.uk/news/camden-palace-reinvented-as-koko/1102793.article )〕 Since, the club has been known as KOKO and serves as one of the premier live music venues in London.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.timeout.com/london/feature/2452/the-best-live-music-venues-in-london-koko )
==History==
The Camden Theatre opened on Boxing Day 1900.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://collection.britishcouncil.org/collection/artist/5/18373/object/43607/ )〕 With a capacity of 2,434 it was one of the largest theatres in London outside the West End. The theatre was designed by the prolific theatre architect W. G. R. Sprague.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Camden Theatre, Camden High Street and Crowndale Road, Camden Town )〕 The theatre was opened by Ellen Terry, then the most celebrated actress in England, who had lived in nearby Stanhope Street as a child.
The ''St Pancras Gazette'', a local newspaper, commented as follows in a review of the theatre's production of an opera called ''The Geisha'' in 1901:
:''"It is a matter of special gratification that the opera was presented at our beautiful local theatre on a scale of magnificence and completeness which would do credit to a West End theatre, but this is nothing new at the Camden Theatre, being rather a continuation of the policy with which the proprietors started their enterprise, viz. to offer nothing to their patrons but standard work, which has received the unmistakable approval of critics and public."''〔''St Pancras Gazette'' (1901)〕
On 6 December 1909 it reopened as a variety theatre and became the Camden Hippodrome Theatre. By 1911 films were being presented as part of the programme and in January 1913 it became a cinema known as the Camden Hippodrome Picture Theatre. In January 1928, the theater was taken over by the Gaumont British cinema circuit.〔
Closed during World War II, it outlived many similar buildings, including Camden Town's other theatre, the Bedford Theatre, largely because it became a BBC radio theatre from 1945 and is Grade II architecturally listed since 1972.〔Grade II architectural listing 〕 Among the first weekly series to be broadcast live from here were The Richard Tauber Programme (). Later programmes recorded at the theatre included ''The Goon Show'' and ''Monty Python's Flying Circus'' album (2 May 1970) until the BBC moved to the Golders Green Hippodrome in 1972.
In 1977 the venue was then renamed The Music Machine. The venue was the central location for the 1979 Disco Dance film ''The Music Machine''.〔 The venue was popular with new wave and first wave punk bands, hosting groups including The Boomtown Rats, The Clash and The Dickies.〔 It was the last venue AC/DC's Bon Scott was seen drinking at before his death from alcohol poisoning in 1980.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.sleazeroxx.com/rip/bonscott.shtml )
In 1982 the venue was renamed Camden Palace. During this period it hosted the rock night "Feet First" on a Tuesday and trance electro night "Peach" featuring Graham Gold on a Friday night. The nights were hosted by Steve Strange and Rusty Egan of electronic band Visage.〔 Camden Palace was the location of Madonna's first UK performance.〔
