Audiences will benefit from an enhanced sound experience at a local theatre thanks to a grant from Manx Lottery Trust.

£15,000 has been awarded to King William’s College from the Community Awards scheme.

This will be used towards the upgrade of sound equipment at King’s Court Theatre, which has also recently undergone renovations and improvements to its lighting system.

King’s Court Theatre strives to bring the best of London theatre to the south of the Isle of Man with Live Screenings from The National Theatre, The Royal Shakespeare Company, The Royal Opera House and The Royal Ballet.
