Dad collapsed and died at theatre after 'spotting ex wife on stage'

A dad-of three collapsed and died at a lost Liverpool theatre after "spotting his ex wife on stage."

The Rotunda Theatre, which made Scotland Road world famous, stood on the land from 1869 until it was destroyed by the Blitz bombing in 1940. The Liverpool ECHO previously reported how originally a public house, the venue could seat 1,790 people in its heyday.

Older generations may still have memories of the popular theatre, that welcomed thousands of families through its doors. But the lost venue also has a dark past.
