Theatrical Scene Painting in the 19th Century: The Artist and the Picture Frame

Following the great success of last year’s “Victorian and Edwardian Theatre in Performance” conference, Tyne Theatre & Opera House is proud to announce a one day conference about nineteenth century theatrical scene painting. Speakers will include Wendy Waszut-Barrett, David Wilmore, Karen Thompson and Ray Walker.

Delegates will have the opportunity to see the progress that has been made on both the restoration of the Victorian stage machinery, and Phase 1 of the theatre’s Grand Saloon project.
