Yorkshire Theatre Newsletter: What's On This Week (Oct 1-7)
Amy Johnson's last flight. Plus -- does Yorkshire exist?
The fuel shortage has come at an unhelpful time for theatres attempting to woo back their audience for the first full season programme since 2019. A bunch of interesting things launch this week, not least the Yorkshire premiere of Lone Flyer which tells the story of 1930s air ace Amy Johnson and her tragic last flight. Amy was a local girl (Hull born and bred) and her plane went down during bad weather over the Thames Estuary in 1941. Hull Truck Theatre, Oct 7-31, £10-£28.50
