|
The Savoy Music Hall in Hope Street Glasgow was built by James Miller and opened on the 18th December 1911 under the management of Samual Lloyd. The auditorium was built on four levels, stalls and three circles, and had a capacity of around 2,000. In 1916 the Theatre was converted to Cinema use by George Boswell by radically altering the stage so that the proscenium could be rebuilt and placed furthur back, and the building was renamed the New Savoy Cinema. The Savoy Cinema closed in 1958 and the building was furthur reconstructed, this time into the Majestic Ballroom which survived until 1972 when the entire building was demolished to make way for a new shopping centre called the Savoy Centre.
