aldwych

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'london theatre's' is the definition.
'aldwych' can be an answer for 'theatre's' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'london' bit.

'adaptation of lady c enthralling wife and husband' is the wordplay.
'adaptation of' indicates an anagram.
'enthralling' indicates putting letters inside.
'wife' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'husband' becomes 'h' (abbreviation).
'lady'+'c'='ladyc'
'ladyc' with letters rearranged gives 'aldyc'.
'aldyc' going around 'w' is 'aldwyc'.
'aldwyc'+'h'='ALDWYCH'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aldwych that I've seen before include "part of London" , "Resentment after a slight" , "theatre" , "London street/tube station" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
