2021 will be Cumbernauld Theatre’s year - and here’s how you can get involved

Bosses, who are preparing to open the new Cumbernauld Theatre on the campus of Cumbernauld Academy, have stated that the facility will now open in 2021.

A grand unveiling in the autumn of this year simply proved to be impossible and the theatre stated last month that no Christmas show would take place this year.

However, staff stress that the planning for the grand opening is well underway as it seeks to appoint a board of trustees for the new performing arts centre which will incorporate a cinema.

“If you are interested in joining us, please send your cv, a short biog and covering letter detailing why you are interested in the role and what skills and attributes you can bring to the board to [email protected].”
