0902 Leeds Varieties (84)

            Leeds City Palace of Varieties. A theatre was possibly in existence here from as early as 1762, but the current building was opened in 1865, making it the 6th oldest working theatre in the UK. It closed in February 2009 for the start of an 18 month, GBP9.2 million refurbishment. Photo taken after closure in February 2009.
Grade 2* listed, the theatre (originally designed by George Smith) reopened in September 2011, and seats 487 on three levels. The auditorium and front of house were restored, whilst the stage and backstage areas were rebuilt to modern standards.
