March 2007
Floral PavilionThe curtain comes down on New Brighton's beloved Floral Pavilion theatre at the start of April - but only for an extended interval! When it rises again in Autumn 2008 the spotlight will very much be on the results of a multi-mil lion pound refurbishment programme that is being carried out on the grand old lady in the meantime . Aside from the refurbishment of the theatre - a resort landmark for nearly 100 years - the complex itself is also set to expand to incorporate cafes and function and conference facilities. The Floral Pavilion closes its doors on April 1st with the 'KEN DODD HAPPINESS SHOW' which, as anyone who has seen Doddy in action will affirm, you'd be a fool to miss. Other shows lined up to help the current theatre bow out in style include performances from singer JOE LONGTHORNE on March 10th, soul legend ALEXANDER O'NEAL on the 18th, BIG NIGHT OUT' ...a Radio Merseyside variety show...... on the 30th and a fabulous dance production 'SPIRIT OF BROADWAY' from the producers of Spirit of the Dance' which has played at the Floral on numerous occasions. For a copy of the final March brochure please contact the theatre Box Office on 639 4360 or visit the theatre website floralpavilion.co.uk.
