50 years of stories will backdrop to new show

DERBY Theatre has announced the launch 50 Faces - Derby Theatre: My Story, a new portrait and audio exhibition celebrating 50 years of stories, people, performances and projects that have shaped the theatre's journey.

- 

Officially launching next Tuesday, October 7 in the lower foyer café at Derby Theatre, the exhibition will shine a light on the people who feature in the portraits whose personal connections to Derby Theatre (formerly Derby Playhouse) reflect its enduring role at the heart of the city's cultural life.

The exhibition started as an open call-out earlier this year, inviting actors, artists, audiences, creatives, staff, volunteers, young people and community members to share their memories and experiences.
