Advantages: The interior decor

Disadvantages: the outside

I also went to The Alhambra Theatre on the 12/09/08 to see MAMMA MIA the movie and along with other reviews, I can only agree, its amazing!

However in complaint to the other review for the cinema night in the Alhambra, I loved the image of the teenage boy in the uniform. I've been in west end theatres many times, and have always said to my self, It would be great to see some young people working in here. And when I seen the teenage boy, I thought "At last! A manager with some sense getting the youth involved!". If I remember correctly, there were 3 commissionaires, and to be honest, not one suit was a perfect fit, as they weren't made for those exact people. So even though the suit wasn't the best fit for the boy, it was good enough for me. I'm a costume designer for theatres and understand that its difficult to get a suit, already made, to fit a specific person.

On a positive note, I've lived in Dunfermline for many years now, and also was curious what was going to happen to the Alhambra, and once it was bought by linklever developments, I, along with others knew that it was going to be a project worth while! The overall image of the theatre is outstanding! With the old fashioned box office's, the staff in the old uniforms, the pillars in the F.O.H, the amazing circle etc. The exterior of the building isn't as nice at the minute, but I popped onto the Alhambra website and seen some old pictures of the place with a massive neon sign outside. So It would be great to get one of those back!

I'm going to stay highly supportive to the restoration project and if anyone is passing the Alhambra i highly recommend you have a look inside! It shall blow you away!
