I have a feeling that the pros we see in these pictures- may be a ‘box in’ around the origional, the curtain tab along the top of it seems to hang too far forward- i maybe wrong !! it just looks very ‘wooden’ maybe its the cheap gold paint that emphasises it? Mike you are right the plasterwork on circle front and balcony is identical to The Alexandra in Birmingham. As things are at the moment the unusal ‘side walkways’ of each side of the d. circle have been extended forward. the circle itself is boarded off with a false wall right up to the aud ceiling
