Chas Mumford, who will head up the new management team of the Palace Theatre, Westcliff, has revealed it will reopen in April.
Chas, who is already manager of the Cliffs Pavilion, says he plans to fill the theatre programme with touring plays and dramas, and hopes to add comedy and live music to the programme.
He also plans to encourage local amateur dramatic and dance groups back to the theatre by reducing hiring costs.
