Really beautiful theatre. We drove through from Glasgow and managed to get parking space on a side street only a short 5 minute walk away. I was at an event so can’t comment on prices of alcohol, juice etc. The staff were all lovely and the seats in the theatre were comfortable enough.

Watched the Scottish Ballet: Starstruck show and officially a ballet fan! Had always put watching ballet in my bucket list and finally had the chance too. Got a 15 pound ticket which I was pleasantly surprised by as I used to think ballet was only for the wealthy! A wonderful and fun jazz fusion with ballet that paid homage to Gene Kelly (who I admittedly didn’t know very well before!). Fantastic show and gorgeous venue and ended the night with a post show talk which I hadn’t realised they had! Lovely to learn more about the show and the dancers!!
