Introduction to the Project The Gaiety Theatre is a social enterprise run entirely for the benefit of the local community, with an overall vision to grow the performing arts and culture in Ayr and South Ayrshire to benefit all residents. We’re unlike most theatres in the UK as we’re largely run through voluntary effort supported by a small core staff team*. Before Worksmart started, the building was in a severe state of disrepair and a huge amount of work had to be carried out in order to restore the building to its former glory.

The building works consisted of: Asbestos Removal, Structural Alterations, Roofing Works, Rot Work, Bespoke Joinery, Specialist Plastering, Ventilation and Air Conditioning, Lighting, CCTV and Security Systems, Audio Visual Systems and Ornate Plastering Work. *taken from the Gaiety’s Website.

Worksmart’s Intervention The project was secured through Competitive Tender and was a follow on Phase for us in the Theatres Refurbishment Programme. It had taken several years for The Ayr Gaiety Partnership to raise £2.5M in funds to facilitate the works.

It was imperative that we had to work with the Client and The Design Team to make the project work through a very demanding 30 week programme with shows and performances booked to take place the week following the handover In that time, four floors and a full auditorium were fully refurbished including a new stage to make the once tired and dilapidated building a state of the art facility. This iconic theatre and listed building in the community of Ayrshire was restored to its former glory.

In this time, Worksmart worked seamlessly with the Client, Austin Smith Lord, and the Full Design Team to produce an outstanding result that will stand the test of time for years to come.
