<dc:description>&lt;p&gt;The Theatre Royal is the performance home to both Scottish Opera and Scottish Ballet and a host to a variety of visiting performances. The dramatic extension to the foyer has transformed the building.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Theatre Royal is managed by the Ambassador Theatre Group and is the performance home to both Scottish Opera and Scottish Ballet and a host to a variety of visiting performances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The theatre was transformed in 2014 following the dramatic extension of the foyer spaces. The extension provides a new entrance to the theatre with vastly improved facilities for theatre patrons and visitors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lifts provide access to all levels of the theatre including an outdoor roof terrace from which views across Glasgow and beyond can be enjoyed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The spacious foyer houses bars, toilets, a caf�, as well as a Box Office that is open six days a week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Within the Grade A listed auditorium - the largest surviving example of renowned theatre architect Charles J. Phipps' work - the seating layout has been redesigned to improve sightlines, while an air handling system has been installed to improve the air flow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Doors Open Day offers visitors the unique opportunity to access areas of the theatre not normally open to the public. Our knowledgeable guides will lead tour groups backstage, revealing the technical processes that go into creating on-stage magic. This is your opportunity to stand on the theatre stage and see the auditorium from the perspective of the performers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;�&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;�&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
