Today is International Women's Day and we are remembering music hall star, Marie Lotus. She saw the poverty in the Trongate and how so many children didn't even have shoes on their feet, so she handed out over 500 pairs of new boots and shoes to every child she could. #internationalwomensday

Trongate, early 1900s, you can just about see our music hall. The Panopticon began screening films in 1896. After undergoing major renovations in 1921, it was briefly renamed The Tron Cinema before eventually reclaiming its original name, The Panopticon. #history #glasgow #scotland #scotland
