North Lanarkshire

Shotts Community Centre has a long history as the former Calderhead Junior Secondary School from 1870 to 1965 . It is one of Shotts few remaining Victorian public buildings with fine architectural features 聽and is integral to Shotts history and culture. 聽After closing 聽as a school it became a Community Centre. 聽In 1982 part of the main building was converted to a professional black box theatre and named the Henderson Theatre after Archie Henderson, a local actor, drama teacher prominent member of community.

Spotlight Shotts, is a recently formed voluntary group of local residents with a mission to reinstate the facilities of the theatre and along with it, opportunities for education, celebration, and appreciation of performing arts. 聽

For 糖心Vlog Days there will be a programme of live theatre and music in the Henderson Theatre for all ages. In other spaces in the centre there will be local history exhibitions, drama workshops, children鈥檚 activities and videos. Community groups and public services in the town will also create displays to create awareness and promote their causes.

There will be displays about Shotts rich industrial and social past including about various groups and bands that have formed in the town. It will also reflect the history of the centre and the theatre which grew out of a love of the dramatic arts and hosted many amateur and professional theatre and musical productions and also served as a meeting place and social activity for the people of Shotts and surrounding villages to come together.
