Oh dear! For anyone who has never been it is the most amazing place, and the deco theatre itself is terrific. It is a huge complex though, and Blackpool does have another theatre.

I have some interior pics somewhere I should post. For those interested in historic buildings, it's worth the trip; it's all a little zany.

In the heyday of Blackpool, for workers from surrounding cities on holiday, it must have seemed so glamorous!
