The Lowry - Celebrating Its Tenth Birthday in 2009
If you're planning a holiday to Manchester this year, be sure to stop by to join in the celebration of The Lowry Theatre's tenth birthday.
The Lowry opened in April of 2000, an inviting, modern building of glass and metal situated to reflect the surrounding water and landscapes of the rejuvenated docklands of Salford Quays.
More than a theatre, it also houses studio and gallery space to showcase a wide variety of visual and performing arts.
Scheduled shows include a wide variety of performers including jazz, ballet, popular music, children's shows, musicals, and other popular presentations.
If you're on holiday, Manchester hotels staff should be able to help you find your way to this beautiful landmark, and help you find appropriate performances and activities on the current schedule.
For a family outing, The Lowry provides a Family Corner, family-oriented talks, Hide-and-Seek Trails, interactive resources and a variety of other activities and performances to keep the little ones as entertained as the adults.
The Lowry also houses the Centre for Advanced Training in Dance, helping carry the artistic traditions of this art form into the next generation.
The Lowry also hosts graduations, weddings and other special events.
In addition to work by L.
S.
Lowry himself, shown in rotating exhibitions to include a large variety of his work, the theatre has exhibited numerous works of art by various painters and photographers.
