    From today, we will change our name to Leeds Playhouse. We exist to celebrate stories, as rich and varied as the communities that surround us. Our new name, and our new redeveloped building, will take this legacy forward. #LeedsPlayhouse bit.ly/2luojay

    A woman approaches in a long billowing white dress with dramatic blue makeup and a sparkling, spiky crown. She looks scary and threatening. She is the White Witch.
