Activities

Visitors will have access to all areas of the theatre, with a tour of back stage and dressing room facilities.

There will be displays of costumes and photos and videos of previous productions as well as the chance to see how the sets are made and what goes into lighting a production. It may be small but the Brigend provides a good insight into the workings of a theatre, usually hidden from the theatre-goer.

Directions:
From the A76 Glasgow Street continue to the T junction with traffic lights where you meet Galloway Street. The Theatre is straight across this road past the pub “The Spread Eagle” and 100m on the right.
