WQ.218/2024
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT
BY THE CONNÉTABLE OF ST. MARTIN
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 3rd JUNE 2024
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 10th JUNE 2024
Question
“Will the Minister outline what work, if any, his Department is undertaking ahead of the planned reopening of the Jersey Opera House to expand opportunities to host theatrical performances through engagement with organisations such as the National Theatre?”
Answer
As the Connétable is aware, prior to closure in March 2020, the theatre was operated by the Jersey Opera House Limited. The company strived to put on as broad a programme as possible within the funding envelope provided.
The senior team at Jersey Opera House Limited are in regular contact with my officers on a number of issues, including the future programme, and are keen to explore all opportunities for events that can be put on at the theatre.
