Issue details
It has been several years since the last
redecoration, and the space has experienced significant use over
time.
The Essex Hall is regularly utilised and generates income for the
theatre cost centre. Although there have been no formal complaints
regarding its appearance, proactive investment at this stage will
prevent future dissatisfaction and will encourage future
bookings.
The theatre’s management has an ongoing list of works and
uses an Action Priority Matrix to prioritise what and when occurs.
