The Royal Project aims to renovate and remodel Eastbourne's Hippodrome theatre building around its magnificent Grade II listed auditorium, and to bring it into use as a fully-equipped community theatre, capable of housing work in a wide variety of theatrical and media forms, and operating all the year round.
The renovated theatre will spearhead the regeneration of Devonshire Ward, acting as a focal point for creative development in media and the performing arts, with day-long programmes to attract all sections of the community.'
