Our Theatre Redevelopment
Our beautiful Victorian home in the Gorbals was in urgent need of repair and is currently closed while it undergoes a major redevelopment. Work is underway to transform the building, conserving its heritage and making it accessible to all.
This will be the first comprehensive redevelopment and restoration of the Citizens Theatre in its 140 years as a working theatre, re-designing an ageing and vulnerable building into a vibrant cultural venue and a major landmark for Glasgow.
