Final curtain for Deco theatre
Administrators have been called in to finalise the liquidation of Northampton's The Deco theatre, which closed earlier this year.
A public notice states assets at the theatre in Abington Square will be divided among creditors.
The theatre, operated by Jesus Army Charitable Trust subsidiary Heartcry Ventures, closed at the end of January.
Bosses blamed disappointing ticket sales during the pantomime season and competition from the reopened Royal and Derngate.
The venue shut after two years. Trust chairman John Campbell said: "Since January we have tried to offer the venue for entertainment, but we have not had the level of interest that we had expected."
