Everyone involved understands what a crucial part a theatre like this has to play in the life of this community and in the wider cultural landscape, so it’s a both a privilege and a big responsibility for us to be part of rejuvenating the building to support the theatres' vision for a welcoming, democratic and creatively inspiring public space.”
