Subsequent lower resolution images show that as of 16 April a total of around 175 tents appeared to have been taken down.It's unclear how many migrants remain at the facility. Stephen Miller - the White House deputy chief of staff - insisted in an interview with Fox News last week that the base remained open and that "a large number of foreign terrorist aliens" were still there.

The White House failed to reply to a request for comment on whether removal of the tents represented a reversal of Trump's plans to expand the detention facility.Despite Trump's pledge to send 30,000 migrants to the base, a US defence official indicated that the deployment to the island was to support a population of 2,500 detainees.BBC Verify's analysis of likely tent capacity estimated it at less than 3,000 people, based on US military sleeping guidelines.

Trump said in January that the expansion would largely be used to hold undocumented migrants deemed to be dangerous criminals or national security risks."Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them, because we don't want them coming back," he said of migrants. "So we're going to send them to Guantanamo... it's a tough place to get out."

But since its inception two and a half months ago, around 400 migrants have reportedly been sent there, with more than half since returned to facilities in the US. Others have been deported, such as 177 people who were sent to Venezuela via Honduras on 20 February.

On 28 March, a group of five Democrat senators visited the base. In a statement, they said they were "outraged by the scale and wastefulness of the Trump Administration's misuse of our military", and described the camp as "seemingly designed to undermine due process and evade legal scrutiny".The Theatre Royal first opened in 1792 and flourished for more than a century.

However, the advent of cinema saw it struggle for a role and - after being used to screen films, hold auctions and even host roller-skating - it closed completely in 1954.That was when the Guild of Players acting group - formed in 1913 - stepped in.

In 1959, its home was earmarked for demolition and it looked around for new premises with the Shakespeare Street property proving the perfect fit.It has run the site since then - with a major overhaul completed in 2015.
