Tramway, The

A theatre and arts venue in a former tramcar depot, The Tramway is located in Pollokshields to the south of Glasgow city centre. The building housed the city's Transport Museum before it moved west to the Kelvin Hall complex and lay unused for a number of years before it was adapted for its current use. It opened in 1988 with Peter Brook's momentous production of the Indian epic, The Mahabharata. The theatre re-opened in 2000 following a Scottish Arts Council National Lottery funded refurbishment.
