A Brief History of the Theatre

The Lowry is a stunning arts centre located in Salford, Greater Manchester. The theatre has a rich history dating back to 2000 when it was first opened by the then Prime Minister Tony Blair. Since its inception, the Lowry has been dedicated to providing a platform for various forms of artistic expression, including music, dance, and visual arts.

The theatre is named after the famous artist L.S. Lowry, who was born in nearby Lees, Oldham.
