Wales Millennium Centre
Given a choice, would you give Scotland a new parliament building or a new arts complex?
An unfair question perhaps . . . Nevertheless I would have opted for the arts complex, or rather four of them. One for Edinburgh, one for Glasgow, one for Aberdeen, one for Inverness (or should it be Dundee?) - each with two theatres, one state-of-the-art lyric theatre with 1,850 seats and a studio theatre with 250. What a difference that would have made to the arts in Scotland!
The Wales Millennium Centre opens on 26 November. It cost 104 million. Maybe we could use it for the Edinburgh Festival? No, maybe I shouldn’t have written that . . . .
