1: At Euston take the Victoria line (direction Brixton).

thats from tube planner.com i have looked at the tube map and if you follow the above its quite straight forward, i take it your going to evening performance, that finishes at apporx 10.30 so looks like a hotel may be needed :-)

The Victoria Palace is right opposite Victoria station and it takes about eight minutes from there to Euston. The Victoria Line is a good service, with trains every three or four minutes. You should really allow 20 minutes in total to get from the theatre to the train, if you hurry.
I've just checked with the theatre and the show doesn't end until ten thirty. You might have to change your journey. There's a train leaves Euston at 23:40 that stops at Rugby, would that help? Can you drive to Rugby and start and finish your journey there?
Good luck, and enjoy the show.

That 23.40 train is the one I always come back to Birmingham on if I'm in London for an evening. It's much slower than the earlier evening trains - it stops more and longer, and was always known by us returning Brummies as the mail-train because of a long stop at Rugby to load mail - but hey, it beats an overpriced night in a London hotel or a VERY expensive taxi back to Nuneaton! BTW, if you do take that late train, take some sandwiches or something, as it has no buffet facilities.
Cathyhuns is absolutely right. There is a replacement bus service, but I suspect that'll take forever. On Victoria Tube station go on to the Eastbound District Line platform and take any District or Circle Line train to Embankment, only three stops. At Embankment, join the Northern Line, northbound. It doesn't matter where the train's going, Edgware, Barnet or Mill Hill, and get off at Euston (6 stops). This will take 20 minutes from boarding the first train.
