== History ==
Prior to becoming a theatre, the building was a kibble factory. (AUDIO: The Night of 1000 Stars)
While performing at the Palace Theatre on 11 August 1887, Gypsy Nancy Lee seemingly predicted George Nevil and Mary Elizabeth Reilly would be killed in a freak snowstorm in Brighton three days later. (AUDIO: Jago in Love)
In 1889, the Fourth Doctor treated Leela to an evening at the Palace Theatre which included singing and a conjuring act by Li H'sen Chang with his sidekick Mr Sin. The Doctor had hoped to see Little Tich.
Finding a link between missing women, including Emma Buller, and the theatre, they enlisted the help of the theatre's manager and master of ceremonies, Henry Gordon Jago. Chang had secretly used the cellar of the theatre as a temporary base of operations, using a hologram of a ghost to scare away intruders. (TV: The Talons of Weng-Chiang)
Jago sold the theatre as a result of the scandal following the Weng-Chiang incident. (PROSE: The Shadow of Weng-Chiang) He later acquired the New Regency Theatre. (AUDIO: The Theatre of Dreams)
