Ambassador Theatre Group buys Live Nation
The Associated Press
Tuesday, November 03, 2009
LONDON — The Ambassador Theatre Group said Tuesday it has completed a 90 million pound ($147 million) deal that makes it one of Britain's biggest theater groups.
The company — which already owns several central London theaters, including the Savoy Theatre and Trafalgar Studios — has agreed to buy Live Nation's UK theaters.
Live Nation owns theaters around London, including the Edinburgh Playhouse and London's Apollo Victoria, which is currently showing the musical "Wicked," a precursor to the "The Wizard of Oz."
The new group will be made up of 39 theaters and will have a combined value of around 150 million pounds ($246 million). Former BBC Director General Greg Dyke will join the new enlarged group as executive chairman.
