Why not treat yourself the next time you travel to Belfast by staying in the newly opened and luxuourous Fitzwilliam Hotel.
The hotel is the first exploration into the field of building by June Burgess who is an established and well know Chartered Landscape Architect. Unlike many buildings the approach for The Fitzwilliam was to design and build a hotel with the focus being on design. Situated next door to the Grand Opera House this stunning building looks right at home and affords it’s guests a great launchpad to get out and explore the marvels Belfast has to offer.

The hotel has a very contemporary feel with 130 rooms designed to be elegant, comfortable and luxurious. Each room boasts desigber textures and fabrics, crisp White Egyptian
linen, duck down feather pillows and quilts and cd players with the essential mp3/iPod connections.
With a delightful restaurant and great bar this hotel is fast becoming one of the notable places to stay, eat and drink when in Belfast.

Musical Theatre in Belfast

Belfast has always been a place from whcih great actors, singers and musicians have hailed so it was not a surprise to see that the city is alive with amateur and professional musical entertainment.

last night, I was treated to a wonderful performance of Fiddler on the Roof by the amazing Fortwilliam Musical Society in the BT Studio at the Waterfront Hall. The Theatre is a small an intimate affair. I was so close to the stage that I could quite literally reach out and touch the performers.

Sadly tonight is the last night of the show and we wish all the cast a great last night, break a leg. For more information about Fortwilliams upcoming events, checkout their website.

Over the coming weeks I plan on featuring more from the work of Musical Theatre and to let you know the many comanies who are doing productions and feature some of the big prodcutions from the professional circuit who will grace our stage in the majestic Grand Opera House Belfast.
