Britannia Panopticon Music Hall
Dublin Core
Title
Britannia Panopticon Music Hall
Description
The world's oldest surviving music hall in the heart of Glasgow's Merchant City where Stan Laurel made his debut in 1906. It has an incredible, quirky, and in some cases downright disgusting past.
Opened in 1857, The Britannia Panopticon Music Hall has seen a variety of entertainments including Music Hall shows, cinematograph, waxworks, rooftop carnival and a basement zoo before it closed in 1938. Saved in 1997 by social historian Judith Bowers and currently undergoing a major conservation project. Marvel at the wonders hidden within its walls.
