Theatres and Cinemas

Our experience in the theatres and cinemas sector ranges from small to large multi-use complexes.

Many of these projects have included refurbishment, restoration and conservation of Grade I and Grade II listed buildings, which requires a sympathetic approach and a complete understanding of the acoustic performance of the buildings.

Victoria Palace Theatre

One of RBCs clients for which we provide a full building control service is the Delfont Mackintosh Theatre Group. This includes the following theatres; Prince of Wales, Prince Edward, Queens, Wyndham, Noel Coward, Sondheim and Gielgud. All of these Theatres are interesting, even if the work is to refurbish the toilets. The interest is in visiting back of house non-public areas and standing in the middle of the stage of an empty prestigious London Theatre. One small project was the alterations to the Julie Andrews VIP suite in the Prince Edwards Theatre. The room is surrounded with photographs of Julie Andrews taken throughout her career, the earliest is a black and white photograph of her performing in a pantomime in1955.
