The Swallow Theatre in Whithorn Scotland is a tiny 48 seat theatre located on the Moss Park estate. It was created by converting a barn with various materials, at times the staging and raised chair areas were pallets and it used to run a bring your own chair scheme. However nowadays they have retractable seating. One of the most interesting aspects of this theatre to me though has to be the lighting which according to their website is powered by solar panels and wind turbines! Truly an ecological theatre then.
I think it looks really quaint and it has a great 'can-do' attitude in its creators. Please check out the website here.
