EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 25th of April, 1962. It offers a unique glimpse into the construction phase of the iconic Chichester Festival Theatre Auditorium. The image showcases an impressive view of the auditorium as it slowly takes shape, revealing its grandeur even in its unfinished state. The photograph captures the essence of anticipation and excitement that must have filled the air during this pivotal moment in Chichester's history. The intricate details of the architecture are visible, showcasing a blend of traditional and modern design elements that would soon become synonymous with this renowned theatre. As we observe this historical snapshot from West Sussex County Council's Chichester Photographic Collection, we can't help but marvel at the craftsmanship involved in creating such a magnificent structure. Every beam and pillar seems to tell a story, hinting at countless performances yet to come. It is fascinating to imagine how this empty space would eventually transform into a bustling hub for creativity and artistic expression. This photograph serves as a reminder that every great masterpiece starts with humble beginnings – here lies an empty stage waiting to be filled with laughter, tears, applause, and standing ovations. Preserved by West Sussex Record Office Ref No: CPS 1207/10), this remarkable image allows us to appreciate not only the final result but also the laborious process behind bringing dreams to life on stage.
