An application is seeking listed building consent to replace light fittings and install lights in new positions in the main auditorium at the Theatre Royal Bath.

The Grade II* listed Georgian building at Sawclose dates from 1805.
With an international reputation, it is one of the few remaining theatres dating from the early 19th century that is still operating.
The application states that lighting upgrades were part of the 2009 / 2010 refurbishment of the theatre, but the technology at that time did not permit updates in the main house.
Now existing tungsten light fittings will be replaced with current specialist LED fittings, with minimal intervention, which will improve light levels, controllability and save energy.
The planning reference is 25/04406/LBA, and the deadline for comments is 22nd December.
