A MAGICAL QUEST FOR ALL THIS FESTIVE SEASON
Can you imagine a world without stories?
Words are fading from books all over town and people are forgetting the stories they used to know off by heart.
Winterlight Festival is fast approaching when tales are told with family and friends. If all stories disappear and children can’t tell their own stories, their voices may be lost forever.
Ambition, power and political unrest explode onto the stage in The Merchant of Venice 1936, direct from selling out the RSC and London’s West End.
Starring Tracy-Ann Oberman (EastEnders, Doctor Who) as Shylock, Shakespeare’s classic is transported to 1930s Britain in this ‘striking and impactful’ (Guardian) new production that ‘makes theatre history’ (The Telegraph). It is adapted by Brigid Larmour and Tracy-Ann Oberman.
One dark night in December, Mr Cracker’s infamous Christmas pudding is snatched from the window sill. The next morning, the whole town is flabbergasted; who would dare take the delicious dessert? It's only when Ivy from nextdoor is accused, that she hatches a plan. Her mission? To find the real culprit. And to prove that her hands aren’t sticky!
Join New Leaf Productions at SCRAP in Sunny Bank Mills for a brand new Christmas show, suitable for children 3+ and their families. Prepare for plenty of audience interaction, live original music and a sprinkling of magic.
This Hallow’s Eve, the Bright Young Things invite you to a rip-roaring, jazz infused party to end all parties!
But wait. Is there more to this group of beautiful beings than meets the eye? Rumour has it there have been shrieks in the night and rum deals being played out. A detective has been called. Could this thrilling celebration turn out to be just a little bit toxic?
A lad lives half way up a historic hill. A teenager is on a road trip to the city in a stolen car. A boy is driving a chariot, pulling the sun across the sky.
A story about the son of the god of the sun, HELIOS transplants the Ancient Greek tale into a modern-day myth wound round the winding roads of rural England - and into the everyday living of a towering city. It’s a story about life, the invisible monuments we build to it, and the little things that leave big marks.
Prepare for a night like no other to come to Leeds where we will take you on a tour of our Haunted Theatre featuring delicious cabaret and momentous burlesque cast from an international all star line up guaranteed to delight and mystify you all.

Dusty Springfield was undoubtedly the finest white soul singer of her era – for millions, she was the definitive pop diva. Her lifestyle was the stuff of legend and great drama. With her relentless quest for perfection and refusal to compromise, Dusty Springfield led a tortured life. Her stage persona – extravagant black mascara and backcombed hair – was at odds with the quiet, shy convent girl, Mary O’Brien, and her sexuality.
We have teamed up with Brave Words, a theatre and spoken word social enterprise based in Leeds, to run a drama group and is open for anyone over 18 to come along.
