Buildings boost for art groups ahead of Games

Two of Scotland's national arts companies, Scottish Opera and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, are to be based in radically revamped homes after receiving £11 million in new funding.

Both companies will redevelop their Glasgow headquarters in time for the Commonwealth Games in 2014, with Scottish Opera upgrading its Theatre Royal venue and the RSNO moving into a new building next to Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.
