The final closure of Falkirk Town Hall (FTH) is set to go ahead - but will be delayed to allow the children's theatre group Big Bad Wolf to go ahead with its show in February.
The minority SNP administration agreed to support an amendment from the Conservative group urging Falkirk Council to delay the closure.
The council's director of Place Services, Malcolm Bennie, wanted councillors to put an end to years of wrangling over a replacement for Falkirk's town hall and the adjoining municipal buildings, which are currently being demolished.
