Yorkshire Theatre Newsletter: Bumper Summer Edition: What's On Jul 30-Sep 2: Part II
Operation Crucible returns to Sheffield this Autumn. Plus, UFO Sightings Over Leeds as Wrongsemble launch a digital adventure.
Let’s dive straight in. Last week I put out a bumper edition which covered shows from Jul 30-Aug 12. This week, Part II, deals with the remaining three weeks of the year’s sleepiest theatre month. Then I’ll have a rest, returning in early September with all sorts of new ideas for taking this Newsletter forward.
What’s On Aug 13-Sep 2
Aug 13-19
By week three, we’re into Deep August. The wasps are turning nasty, the bosses are away and — with any luck — there’ll be nothing on the news except Silly Season stories.
From a Yorkshire perspective, this week’s creative excitement has to be the launch of Wrongsemble’s Stargazer. It’s an online digital adventure for families involving a UFO sighting over Leeds. Sign up for access to five films and an interactive Fact File with 14 artefacts sent directly to your home. Star Choice. From Aug 13, £8.
