History
The first
theatre on this site was built in 1866 and was called The New Prince of Wales
Theatre. This theatre was the biggest and most successful in Liverpool at the
time, the theatre that now stands on the site is half as big again. The new theatre
was opened in 1925 the Empire Theatre and still holds production to this day.
Both Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby have performed there. The theatre was threatened
with closure in 1977 when the owners Moss Empries reveled that it has made a loss
for the passed five years. With public backing the theatre was taken over by Merseyside
County Council in 1979 and they undertook extensive renovations. Clear Channel
Entertainment now owns the Empire Theatre. Productions
