One of the UK's Most Successful Theatre Groups
Nica Burns and Max Weitzenhoffer is the owner and operator of the theatre group called Nimax Theatres Ltd. In 2005, Burns and Max announced their plans to acquire four London playhouses from Andrew Lloyd Webber. The venues in question were the Lyric Theatre, Duchess Theatre, Garrick Theatre, and Apollo Theatre, which they took control of in October. The Vaudeville Theatre is already owned by Max since 2001. In September 2005, he transferred it to the newly founded company. Nimax also bought the Palace Theatre from Webber in April 2012. Now, it owns and runs six of the city's prominent theatres, hosting a wide variety of shows and attracting millions of audiences every year.
