Old Photograph Her Majesty's Theatre Dundee Scotland

Old photograph of Her Majesty's Theatre in Dundee, Scotland. The Theatre opened for drama, musicals, opera and pantomime in the Seagate in October 1885. It was designed by architect William Alexander, who was also Burgh Architect, and it occupied the shell of a large building dating from the start of the century. It held 1,650 people in comfort. It had two serpentine shaped galleries above the stalls, and ten boxes. The foyer had marble staircases, and its fireplace was in carved oak with tiles of scenes from the works of Sir Walter Scott.
