Where The Art Is
The Round will soon unveil a brand new permanent artwork by local artist Ali Rhind for the stairs leading down to the auditorium. Based at 36 Lime Street Studios next door to the theatre, Ali combines sculpture, furniture making and textile practice using low-tech traditional methods. Working mainly with recycled materials, she creates rugs, seating, acoustic panels and wall hangings. See http://www.alirhindtextiles.co.uk for more details.
The Times They Are A-Changin'
We’ve made the green permanent seats even comfier with new footrests, and added extra lighting bars to make the shows even more atmospheric. Backstage, there’s new décor and we’ve added more pictures to the front-of-house areas. The café-bar now has a range of lovely furniture and wall art.
