Bromsgrove District Council has told residents it is committed to reopening the town’s theatre and arts centre, which ceased trading last week due to losses in the wake of the Covid-19 lockdown. An insolvency practitioner has been assigned to Artrix and the Council is exploring options for it to have a "long-term sustainable future". A spokesperson said: “We must make sure nothing like this happens again... I am sad it has come to this."
A Facebook group called ‘The Future of Artrix', set up by previous performers, hirers and supporters of the venue, has already attracted 1,300 followers.
