About Tramway Backstage: Historical Tours
Our team will highlight some of Tramway’s original architectural features while celebrating its place in Glasgow’s industrial and cultural histories; including the building and maintenance of Glasgow’s tram fleet, the female workforces and their war efforts, and our inaugural theatre production by Peter Brook. Whether you know the building as a theatre, the transport museum or not at all, we hope you will join us to share in this diverse collection of stories.
