The Fullarton

The Fullarton is a performing arts theatre and entertainment venue in the town of Castle Douglas in the historical county of Kirkcudbrightshire in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.

It was closed in the 1970s due to a failure in requirements to run safely as a theatre.

In 1984, the late Donald Fullarton, (whose daughter Morag Fullarton is a theatre and television director [1] ), a member of the Scottish Community Drama Association subsequently formed the Galloway Arts Project with the help of local amateur dramatics clubs.

In the mid 1990s, further major funds were provided by the newly founded National Lottery and opened as a functioning theatre in 1996.

[3] It is also used by the member clubs of the Scottish Community Drama Association, most recently holding the SCDA One-Act Western Divisional Festival in March 2018.
