<div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW121447523"><p class="Paragraph SCXW121447523"><span class="TextRun SCXW121447523"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW121447523">The King's Theatre was built in 1905 by Edinburgh builder, William Stewart Cruikshank. Andrew Carnegie laid the foundation stone and the Theatre was opened in 1906 with a performance of Cinderella. The King's Theatre became the headquarters of Howard & Wyndham before being sold to Edinburgh Council in 1966. The local authority managed the King's Theatre up until July 1998 when the operation merged with the Festival Theatre. Festival City Theatres Trust now manages both Theatres. The theatre has beautiful examples of Edwardian stained glass and its domed ceiling is the largest piece of public art work designed and painted by John Byrne.</span></span></p><p><strong>ACTIVITIES AND GLOBAL CONNECTIONS</strong></p><p>We will provide several building tours throughout the day that will highlight the history and heritage of our building and showcase the theatre’s connections with a host of global entertainers, including Anna Pavlova, Dame Margot Fontaine, Maria Callas, Juliette Binoche and Dame Maggie Smith. 10:30; 12:30; 14:30.</p><p>We will offer two intergenerational dance workshops where young people can join in with their grown ups to learn dances from across the globe – the vibrant Brazilian Samba, the timeless English Waltz through to jumpin’ jive from America and the dance of the spanish matador, the Paso Doble. 11:30, 13:30.</p><p>We will also run two workshops exploring the global origins of pantomime.
