Report - The Haymarket Theatre, Leicester Feb 2014

[mattdonut]

The Haymarket Theatre is a purpose built theatre built in 1972 as part of the redevelopment of the adjoining Haymarket Shopping Centre. The Theatre was closed in January 2007 after 25 years as Leicester’s premier theatrical venue and has been replaced by Curve, a £60 million new theatre project in the nearby Cultural Quarter on Rutland Street. The Cultural Quarter also includes the Phoenix (cinema, entertainment and art venue) which opened in September 2009.
