    THE VAN HAS BEEN FOUND!! With all of our costumes inside 🎉 We can't quite believe it, police found it abandoned 5 miles from where it was taken. We were overwhelmed with the support & offers of help we received & we're sure it played a part in the van's discovery! Thank you ❤️!

    Sadly today our van full of props/costumes for GYPSY was stolen. 12 huge laundry bags full of 1930s/40s costumes were in the back. For us these costumes are irreplaceable & we would love to get them back. We are appealing for anyone who might have any information.

    What a treat to see Pep Guardiola in the house last night watching WEST SIDE STORY! Here he is with our wonderful cast. So lovely to bring sport & theatre together and celebrate the culture of this brilliantly vibrant city. #Manchester @mancity

    This is hugely welcome, & recognises the vital role that arts & culture plays in society. We are grateful for such a major industry-wide investment & look forward to seeing the detail of this package.
    The show must go on. We’re introducing a world-leading £1.57 billion rescue package to help cultural, arts and heritage institutions weather the impact of coronavirus.
