The Single Theatre Working Party's report into the idea of staging "Prompt Corner" studio shows in the Bell Theatre and dividing Prompt Corner into a stage size rehearsal area (in which sets could be erected to aid rehearsals then moved to the stage) and a real workshop for set and props building was rejected by a small margin. Costing for dividing, a sound-proof wall to the auditorium and electrical work was £1,000, extra sound-proofing to Bell Theatre wall £300 and access door and removable ramp to Bell stage left wing area £500 at 1983 prices. This to provide 11 seven night shows and 11 two night shows.
