Rage & Reinvention
The late seventies and early eighties; Northern England. A time of huge unrest, upheaval and hardship. Out of this time grew a sense of place, a sense of creativity and ‘doing it for ourselves’.
This short season of work, centred around James Graham’s powerful new adaptation of Alan Bleasdale’s Boys from the Blackstuff, explores the anger of the time whilst celebrating the creativity and drive it inspired, in Leeds, the North and beyond, the ripples of which are still felt today. With events taking place at the Hyde Park Picture House, City Varieties and Leeds Grand Theatre, if you book for more than one event you'll save money automatically at the checkout.

More about this season
This short season sees a new approach for Leeds Heritage Theatres, with a theme explored across artforms and across our venues, allowing audiences to explore new ways of looking at the world as well as perhaps trying a new artform or venue for the first time.
Our CEO, Vicky Cheetham said: “I’m hugely excited about the opportunity to curate diverse seasons of work across our spaces, bringing together film, theatre, music, and dance. Our organisation can explore themes from multiple perspectives, sparking new conversations, connections, and experiences for both our audiences and those discovering our spaces for the first time.”
