The Bristol Old Vic, one of Britain's most historic theatres, founded in 1766 by 50 merchants, lawyers and politicians, has been given a spectacular £12.26 million makeover in the first phase of a major redevelopment.
Originally designed by the Bristol architect James Saunderson, the theatre is believed to be the oldest working theatre in the UK.
Stage Electrics was awarded the contract to design and install a completely new technical infrastructure and production lighting, audio and communications systems. The project has been headed by consultants Charcoalblue with design by John Stevens and project management by John Woodley; architect Andrzej Blonski
