We pride ourselves on producing a diverse programme and there are many exciting announcements to come!”
The Piece Hall Charitable Trust CEO Nicky Chance-Thompson MBE DL said, “It’s been a truly amazing season with so many incredible performances, but for me the best thing about the series is the thousands of magical moments we create for so many people – the audience members, the artists but also the many young people who’ve had life changing work experience opportunities.
