The Beacon’s two performance spaces use leading-edge technology to present a variety of performance types and its main theatre has one of Scotland’s largest stages. We’ve designed the main stage to include a full height fly tower with a counterweight system and a retractable orchestra pit. There’s also generous side stage and backstage facilities to accommodate touring productions.
