NEW SEATS FOR THE PLAYHOUSE

We’re delighted to announce that with support from the University of Stirling we’re updating the seating in the Playhouse in the next few weeks. The benchs are being replaced with rows of individual seats*, complete with cup holders. You’ll be able to enjoy this new level of comfort in the Playhouse from March 2019, making your cinema (or live) experience even more enjoyable. *similar to the ones pictured above


CAMPUS CENTRAL

The University of Stirling is undertaking an exciting new infrastructure project called Campus Central – one of the biggest since their foundation. This £21 million project will create a new three-storey building at the heart of campus and give students, staff and visitors a host of new study and social spaces to take advantage of. This important investment will mean a few changes for us at Macrobert Arts Centre and you our customers, but we’ll be keeping you up to date with all the latest info on our website, social media channels and e-newsletters. MAIN DOORS The first change you’ll notice, at some point in the next couple of months, is the relocation of our front entrance. You’ll be coming into our building from a new double door on the lochside instead, but don’t worry there’ll be signs to point you in the right direction. ACCESSIBLE PARKING The accessible parking spaces will be moving too, but there are plans for a few more of these and you’ll still be able to drop off near our new main door. We’re working with the University to keep the disruption associated with these changes to a minimum, but please bear with us during this re-development – we’re here to help make your visits to Macrobert Arts Centre as enjoyable and easy as they’ve always been. Look out for all the latest info on our website and we look forward to seeing you soon.

EVENT CINEMA ROYAL OPERA HOUSE LIVE:

LA TRAVIATA

From the thrill of unexpected romance to a heartbreaking reconciliation that comes too late – Verdi’s La Traviata is one of the most popular of all operas. Alfredo falls in love with the courtesan Violetta in glamorous Paris society, but underneath the surface run darker undercurrents, leading to a tragic ending. Lavish period sets and costumes enhance the reality of a moving story based on true life. Sun 3 Feb, 2pm Tickets: £17 / £15 Conc & Friends

ROYAL OPERA HOUSE LIVE:

DON QUIXOTE

Cervantes’s story of the bumbling knight has inspired countless artistic interpretations. Marius Petipa choreographed this sparkling ballet about the encounters of the man from La Mancha and his faithful squire Sancho Panza. Carlos Acosta chose this joyful classic for his first production for The Royal Ballet. His vibrant staging brings together the whole Company in such roles as exuberant villagers, passionate gypsies and even fantasy flowers. Tue 19 Feb, 7.15pm Tickets: £17 / £15 Conc & Friends

ROYAL OPERA HOUSE LIVE:

LA FORZA DEL DESTINO Leonora falls in love with Don Alvaro, but when her father forbids their marriage, a fatal accident triggers a drama of obsession, vengeance and tragedy. Jonas Kaufmannand Anna Netrebko star in Verdi’s epic La forza del destino (The Force of Destiny) an opera which demands the very best of singers for its powerful music and the fullest theatrical treatment for its story of bitter revenge, pursued across miles and years. Tue 2 Apr, 6.15pm Tickets: £17 / £15 Conc & Friends


EVENT CINEMA ROYAL OPERA HOUSE LIVE:

FAUST

There are many versions of the story of Faust, who trades his soul with the Devil for youth and power, but Gounod’s opera remains one of the most constantly enthralling. Michael Fabiano stars as Faust, with Diana Damrau as his beloved Marguerite and Erwin Schrott as the diabolical Méphistophélès. Virtuoso leading roles, a large chorus, sensational sets, ballet and an ecstatic finale make this the epitome of theatrical spectacle. Tue 30 Apr, 6.45pm Tickets: £17 / £15 Conc & Friends

NATIONAL THEATRE LIVE:

ALL MY SONS

Broadcast live from The Old Vic in London, Academy Award-winner Sally Field (Steel Magnolias, Brothers & Sisters) and Bill Pullman (The Sinner, Independence Day) star in Arthur Miller’s blistering drama.
