As predicted, the refurbishment of the Playhouse is taking longer than expected but the good news is that the Committee have now appointed a Project Manager, final plans have been drawn up and have been marked for a first fix. Generally first fix will include constructing the structure, cladding, flooring, doorframes, stairs and so on and installing cables for electrical and ICT distribution, pipework for water and gas distribution and heating ventilating and air-conditioning ( HVAC) distribution. First fix is not normally visible when looking at the finished building.

The Stage Manager studies the plans
Meanwhile, general maintenance of the fabric of the Playhouse is being carried out by the indomitable Tuesday Morning Group. Here they can be seen scraping years’ worth of paint off the stage floor.
