There's a magical atmosphere inside the Theatre Royal Glasgow

Theatre Royal Glasgow has a long and illustrious history, having first opened in 1867 as a performance venue for pantomime, opera, comedies and plays. Gutted by fire just twelve years later, it was redesigned by celebrated architect Charles Phipps, surviving as the largest example of his theatre work still in existence today. Although it has gone through various interior design schemes and has been added to with modern extensions, the building has been refurbished to include a colour scheme and layout in keeping with how it would have been at the end of the 19th century. Step inside the Theatre Royal Glasgow and you will be amazed by the intense colours, lavish decoration and contemporary design features that make the building such a delight to explore.
