the palace theatre

This is the Palace Theater in Swansea. It is listed but crumbled into disrepair as the London based management company has failed to maintain it. It is a beautiful building and has seen some famous faces "tread the boards" including charlie Chaplin.

This photo was taken in November. I walked past today and meant to take a photo on the way back but I forgot. I am pleased to see that some work has been done and the shrubbery has been removed from the roof. It looks like it has been stabilized too.
