Arts venue, 88 London Road, formerly called Emporium is to close its doors at the end of the year. Just when director James Weisz thought he had secured the future of the theatre at 88 London Road, he says his world “has been turned upside down.”
Emporium, Brighton’s only professional producing theatre, is raising funds to improve its facilities to provide a better experience for audiences and performers alike. Since opening its doors in April 2013, Emporium on London Road has coped with temporary seating and kind gifts of technical equipment from supporters, but now in its second year it is looking to create a permanent space that can be used by theatre companies. A crowd-funding page has been created to raise a small amount of money for carpentry, building, plumbing, electrical work and some painting and decoration.
