City Varieties Tour
18 April 2012
10 - 11am
Originally built in 1865, City Varieties Music Hall in Leeds has recently undergone a major �9.9 million refurbishment which sees this historically significant venue lovingly restored to its former Victorian splendour and benefiting from improved facilities for both performers and customers.
renovation began in 2009 and was carriedout in the style of the 1890s. The Varieties theatre was the home of The Good Old Days, the BBC's long-running TV variety show for over 30 years. Once, there were more than 300 such music halls nationwide but few now remian in working existence.
A tour of the new building has been arranged for 18 April at 10am, coinciding with the PLASA Focus trade show at the Royal Armouries in Leeds. A member of the technical department will be on hand to answer any questions about the new installation and facilities.
The tour is open to all, not just ALD members, although priority will be given to members in case of the maximum number being exceeded.
Please RSVP to [email protected] by 11 April.
