Entertaining: Leicester's Cultural Quarter

 

There's a little something for everyone in the Cultural Quarter. Experience "inside out" theatre. Engage your senses in a digital encounter. Enjoy a meal in a restaurant, café, bar or pub. Watch street performers in a high quality public realm.

 

The below gives a little taster of the entertainment you can enjoy on a visit to the Cultural Quarter...

 

One Leicester - Entertainment at Curve, experience "inside out" theatre.

Curve    |    www.curveonline.co.uk

Designed by award-winning architect Rafael Viñoly

 

Officially opened by HRH the Queen on 4 December 2008, Curve is unlike any other theatre with no traditional backstage area separating the world of theatre-making from the public - a truly ‘inside-out theatre’. Commissioned by Leicester City Council, the building has won two prestigious awards from the Royal Institute of British Architects and the ProCon Leicestershire Building of the year award.
