Amazing timelapse footage from the producers of Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre in Chester reveals the complete construction of the city’s unique open air theatre, which takes place for 9 weeks every summer.

The theatre was constructed in 2 weeks by a crew of 10 men. It is 4 metres in height and has an 80 metre radius. It has over 500 seats, 200 of which are covered by canopies to protect audiences from sun and rain.

It’s incredible to watch the theatre rise from the ground this way; it’s such a unique structure.

Over 25,000 people will visit the shows this summer, this films offers a different perspective to the experience.’
