Judith Bowers - founder of The Spirit of Glasgow Tour Company, (Glasgow’s first walking tour company), founder and director of the Britannia Panopticon Music Hall campaign and author of Glasgow’s Lost Theatre - will lead you on an edifying, amusing and sensational tour of the entertainment and theatre history of Glasgow. Starting outside the front of the St Enoch Subway Station in St Enoch Square, you will discover tales of ghostly pipers, dancing bears, flea circuses, executions (once the only permitted entertainment in the city), Penny Geggies, the first theatres of Glasgow and some of the celebrities who have visited the city throughout its history. The walk ends with a tour around The Britannia Panopticon, the oldest surviving original music hall where Stan Laurel made his stage debut. Please note this tour may contain some adult content and very bad jokes. All proceeds from this tour go to The Friends of The Britannia Panopticon Music Hall Trust to assist in continuing the campaign and keeping the music hall open.
Ticket price: £12 for everyone
Your Tour Ticket includes admission to the music hall and £1 off hot and cold drinks at the bar. Please note that this is a WALKING TOUR AND NOT A SHOW. Tour level 1 - easy.
