The reviews are in and it's a triumphant return to the stage! The original colour-scheme has been restored in the Opera House at @WGBpl ...

Another lock down project at the Opera House, Winter Gardens Blackpool. The Proscenium Arch purple from the 1980’s colour scheme has gone and has been replaced with the original colours of the 1930’s when the Theatre reopened having been rebuilt.

We’re busy making plans for 2021. Until then, here’s our gorgeous volunteer Sharon bringing a strong 1940s look to the @WGBpl open day last year 😍 #ThrowbackThursday #filmfestival #vintagestyle
