welcome to the citizens theatre I very much hope you enjoy Betrayal, my first show as Artistic Director of this celebrated theatre. Since my arrival a few months ago I have been overwhelmed by the support, enthusiasm and love that people in Glasgow have shown towards this iconic organisation. I hope that we will maintain and develop its reputation as one of the country’s most important cultural institutions. We look forward to bringing you a programme of some of the greatest plays ever written, alongside new plays by the finest writers from Glasgow and beyond; as well as a programme of classes, workshops and performances that you can get involved with at the theatre or in the community. We will be working with some of the finest actors and theatre-makers in the UK to make your experience as memorable as possible, and with prices starting at 50p, I hope you will visit us again and again. Dominic Hill - Artistic Director
