Highlights include the melodic Humming Chorus, the moving aria One Fine Day and the unforgettable Love Duet.

It's also been used for different functions; as a cinema in WW2, then a bingo hall before reopening as a theatre again in 1984. Since, it has hosted magnificent shows like Barnum and Phantom of the Opera.
