Listed building consent was granted at Her Majesty's Theatre on 31 March 2021 for “ Internal works to the stage area including temporary removal and repair of part of the proscenium arch for future reinstatement along with missing scagiola sections; repairs to and repainting of retained proscenium arch; repairs to auditorium ceiling, alterations to orchestra pit and replacement of orchestra pit balustrade”. Condition 11 of that permission states: “ A photographic record of the removed vertical sections of the proscenium arch shall be undertaken prior to, during and after removal, in accordance with document titled 'Specification for Photographing Proscenium Arch Scagliola.' The photographic record shall then be submitted to the City Council for approval in writing." The planning file, available by searching '21/03848/ADFULL' on the Westminster Council website, contains almost 100 photos of the theatre. Many are of very small detail of the Prosc Arch eg this one, but some are of the wider theatre which may be of interest:
