Nightclub, theatre, creative hub, party place, and one of the most
important venues in Scotland, Britain and Europe: for almost 25
years, The Arches was the beating heart of Glasgow. In 1991, former
punk-turned-theatre director Andy Arnold walked into the disused
red brick Victorian railway arches underneath Glasgow's Central
Station and immediately saw the potential of the space. Not even he
could have imagined its future, as simultaneously one of the
biggest and most famous nightclubs in the world and a major player
on the European theatre scene. Until its closure following a
drug-related death in 2015, The Arches carved its own, indefinable
path, playing a vital role in the lives of many Scottish artists
along the way. Some of those stars of the future began their
careers taking tickets, hanging coats and serving drinks there. For
the first time, the people who made the venue get to tell their
story. Piecing together accounts from directors, DJs, performers,
clubbers, artists, bar tenders, actors, audiences and staff,
Brickwork writes the biography of a space that was always more than
its bricks and mortar.
