Perth Theatre is all wrapped up

-

Perth Theatre was dressed in hope this week despite the pain of the coronaviru­s pandemic.

The theatre has been closed during lockdown, while the future remains uncertain.

But on Monday night a team from the theatre decided to spread some cheer after a weekend during which the government­s in Edinburgh and London pledged financial support for the arts.

As part of the Scenechang­e movement, the building was wrapped in Live Theatre Matters tape.

Scenechang­e said:“Whilst we navigate a way back to live performanc­e we continue missing live theatre to bring joy and colour to theatres across the UK and Ireland to celebrate these incredible buildings, and the key role they play within their communitie­s.

“We welcome the government investment and see this as a key moment for the industry, a time to renew and reset, build a stronger future for all and safeguard the sector for future generation­s.”
