£10m design for Royal Court Theatre revamp
The refurbishment of the Liverpool's Grade II-listed Royal Court Theatre has been allocated an architect following a public display of seven shortlisted designs.
London-based Allford Hall Monaghan Morris' (AHMM) £10m proposal for the 71-year-old building was chosen and includes an enlarged entrance space for the 1,250-seat theatre – a 20-year-old rock music venue – with a digital screen and rooftop restaurant and bar. The middle two floors will also be organised to create a more comfortable bar and casual spaces for between performances. The shortlisted architects, selected from a list of 50 entrants for The Royal Court Liverpool Next Stage Competition, were Burrel Foley Fischer; Nord Architecture; Pentagram; Studio Andrew Todd; Studio 3; and Union North.
AHMM previously worked on the Barbican Arts Centre and the Saatchi Gallery in London.
