Upgrading mechanical and electrical systems, including eco-efficient heating
Improving accessibility with enhanced wheelchair access
Increasing seating capacity to 650 with removable seating options
Enhancing legroom and overall audience comfort

These improvements were undertaken to meet modern health and safety standards while respecting the building’s historical significance.
