Watch our flythrough

Step inside!

Our iconic building had fallen into disrepair and was no longer fit for purpose.  The redevelopment will secure its future for new generations of theatre-goers in Glasgow.

Before we open our doors, this is your chance to step inside the foyer and have a look around.  View the stunning exposed brickwork, the vibrant new staircases and take a peek at where the elephants now live.

The newly uncovered arches show where you’ll enter the fully accessible auditorium.
