  • Description
    Colour photograph showing the façade of the Grand Theatre in Blackpool. Looking up to the curved corner, it shows a Baroque façade with decorated window features and three bays divided by pilasters, topped by a copper fish-scaled dome on a cupola that rises behind scroll gables with finials and is crowned by a colonetted lantern. A decorated iron canopy in white bends around the corner façade, with ornamented gables above entrances marked DRESS CIRCLE and STALLS to the left of a main entrance bearing the theatre’s name. THE GRAND THEATRE also appears at the top of the corner façade and the single words ART and MUSIC are visible on the face of each scroll gable.
