Barnes is an extremely nice area.
It's a few miles drive (probably about 7) to the Vic and not ridiculous traffic (for London!, it will still be busy), the route would skirt proper central London. On public transport it's a bit of a route, you'd have to get a bus to Hammersmith (unless you're in Castlenau, you can just walk over the bridge to Hammersmith), then a tube to Earls court, then another tube to Edgeware Road, were it's a five minute walk to the Vic. I don't think the buses are that frequent from Barnes, so that would be the weak link, once you get to Hammersmith, the tube part is only about 20 minutes (I've done it, I work in Hammersmith)
