The Friends of the Palace Theatre The Friends of the Palace Theatre were formed in 2002 to aid and assist the ailing and deteriorating Palace Theatre in Paignton. Restricted disability access, flat floor auditorium, poor visibility lines, cramped bar - look at the Palace Theatre today! Sympathetically renovated to include full disability access, raked seating which gives a full view of the stage from any seat in the house, enlarged comfortable bar and backstage facilities brought up to standard for a modern 21st century theatre. This lovely old building has been brought back to life as a community asset for all to enjoy. The Friends are now a well organised club of supporters who raise funds to improve the facilities, and to maintain the Palace Theatre as a technically advanced and attractive venue for amateur and professional productions alike. Having raised over ÂŁ100,000 towards the initial refurbishment, they continue to contribute to additional improvements. But there is still more to do. The Friends are about to embark on a second exciting phase of the refurbishment project. They have submitted plans to Torbay Council to revamp the Arena area. The plans include a new entrance and wheelchair friendly lobby, a new toilet block and a welcoming access to the refurbished main hall.

The Palace Theatre is, in a very real sense, a community resource we must all treasure. There is much important work to be done regarding this second phase, but the Friends are not just about raising money. They are a lively social group who support and promote all the performing arts and encourage the people of Torbay to get involved. We are keen to increase our membership, to widen our influence, and to encourage as many residents of Torbay as possible to take an active interest in this, their community theatre. Membership entitles you to discount tickets on some productions, a regular newsletter keeping you informed of forthcoming shows, and the various social events. There are regular coffee mornings, trips, lunches, and fund raising activities and social occasions to enjoy. For more information pick up a Friends of the Palace Theatre brochure from the foyer or contact Marion Smith at marionejsmith@hotmail.co.uk PLEASE JOIN US AND GET INVOLVED TODAY!

Patrons: John Nettles, Pam Ayres, Leon Winston, Kate Reeves
