Artscape renovations delay restaurant opening
ADDITIONAL renovations at the Artscape Theatre Centre have caused a three-week delay in the opening of the new Artscafé restaurant.
“The new restaurant will now open in the week of 21 November instead at the beginning of November. The renovations include the expansion of the Fine Music Radio (FMR) studios on the Marble foyer and the old Stage Café restaurant,” says Artscape CEO Michael Maas.
“Initially the upgrading of the FMR studios was scheduled for a later date. Artscape decided to let the two upgrades coincide with each to minimise discomfort to Artscape patrons,” he says.
