I'm an American but can answer parts of your question..*S*<BR>The Dominion Theater is on Tottenham Court Road ,the Tube station is directly to your left as you leave the theater... only a matter of a few yards walk. ( That would be an inexpensive way to get to Marlebone Station. But if you still prefer a taxi, maybe someone else can help you with your question about the fare.)<BR>Centre Point is also to the left of the theater as you face Tottenham Court Road... very near where Charing Cross Rd, Oxford Street, New Oxford and Tottenham Court Road interect.. an easy walk. <BR>There are many places to eat in the area , but I do not know for sure which feature a pre-theater menu. You will be in walking distance of Soho where there are many restaurants. And also you will be within walking distance of the Wagamama on Streatham Street .. not a fancy place, but a fun place to eat Japanese noodles.<BR>Oh, there are also some hotels at the corner of Bloomsbury Steet & Great Russell which have nice resturants... those too are less than a 3 minute walk from the theater.

Just read a review regarding We Will Rock You. Not much of a plot, but if you're a Queen fan, you'll have a blast.
