Frequently asked questions
In 1982 the original seating from the Grand Circle of the Winter Gardens was sold and presumed lost forever. Now nearly forty years later, these unique chairs from our wonderful theatre were discovered and offered back to the theatre. Leyland Masonic Hall who purchased them in 1982 has extensively refurbished them so they are in excellent condition.
The Friends of the Winter Gardens had less than a year to raise the money required to return them back to the Grand Circle. Please pledge your support for the future restoration of the Winter Gardens by sponsoring a chair.
