Madame Tussaud's Rock Circus

  • January 27, 2002
  • Rated 4 of 5 by hayward68 from Toronto, Ontario
Madame Tussaud's Rock Circus

This attraction is the music industry version of Madame Tussauds. Here you will find the wax figurines of some of your favourite musical entertainers from the Beatles to David Bowie. Have your picture taken with one of your favourite singers or buy souveniers in the attached store.

An interesting portion of Rock Circus is the graveyard area, where the figures of deceased singers and band members are placed, such as Freddy Mercury and Michael Hutchence.

Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum

At Madame Tussaud's, you can meet the past...and celebrities of the present. We were there just after the Royal Wedding, and the present Royal Family was displayed in their wedding regalia. In addition, kings and queens dating back to Richard the Lionheart were modeled, in life-like wax mannequins.

In the entertainment wing, we met Pierce Brosnan as 007, Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, and the Beatles, and in the main hall, where you first enter, Odette and I posed with Sean Connery. A special treat for me, as a long-time member of Scouts and Guides, was posing with Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of the worldwide Scouting movement.

The tour ends with the Hall of Horrors, or torture chamber, but if you're queasy there's an option to bypass it. In all, very "touristy", but an enjoyable afternoon.

Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum

Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum

Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum hosts more than 2 million visitors annually and for good reason: it's fascinating. The volume and quality of the work is well worth the price of admission. (If you want to make more than two hours of your destination, the London Planetarium adjoins Madame Tussaud's and there is a combo ticket that will save you a pound or two). Each visitor is likely to gravitate to their own set of personalities in the museum and there truly IS something for everyone -- religious, political, entertainment, historical, pop culture -- Madame Tussaud's covers all the bases with celebrities through the years. Some of the figures are so life-like that you expect them to begin talking. Take your time and enjoy it all, but we recommend getting there early because the crowd can really tend to build as the day progresses. (You can check the hours in one of the visitor guides that are everywhere in London and you might even find a coupon). The Baker Street tube station will leave you within easy distance of the museum. And speaking of rides, the Madame Tussaud experience finishes with a flourish: A 'Black Taxi' style ride called the Spirit of London which will take you on a historic, sometimes creepy tour of past days in this famous city. It's really a great finish to a great stop!

Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum

Visit 'The Spirit of London', which depicts more than 400 years of English history. Don't miss 'The Grand Hall' where wax effigies of Kings and Queens, statesmen, and Princess Diana are displayed. The 'Chamber of Horrors' recreates scenes from crime and punishment in English history from the French Revolution to Victorian London. See 'Hollywood Legends' brought back to life in wax figures.
