Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham

The Grade II listed building was designed by Frank Matcham and was originally called the New Theatre and Opera House.

Members enjoyed a variety of social activities, but, even before lockdown, support diminished and the ETA was wound up in late 2021.

The theatre closed in 1983 to coincide with the development of the Regent Arcade, during which the building underwent significant rebuilding and refurbishment.

The pink paint on the iconic narrow and high Opera House proscenium arch was removed to reveal the original Scagliola marble.

[10] Above the proscenium arch, the spandrels were restored to put original paintings representing the angels of Comedy and Tragedy back in place.
