Translation to English (UK) is not necessary as the text is already in English, but I can provide the same text with some minor adjustments to conform to UK English spelling and vocabulary:

Note: The translation is essentially the same, as the differences between US and UK English are minimal in this text. However, if you'd like, I can make some minor changes, such as changing "dominated" to "dominated the scene" or using "theatre" instead of "entertainment scene", but these changes would not significantly alter the meaning or tone of the text.
