#LoveTheatreDay

The #LoveTheatreDay feed today is inspiring. Clearly, there are lots and lots of us about who do love theatre – heartening in these challenging (to say the least) times. Despite being besieged on so many sides, it seems, many people still recognise that theatre – and its cultural sisters and brothers – has an enormous amount to offer to individuals, communities, societies, nations. By being part of live performance, on-stage and off, we feel connected, united, strong; we have our experiences broadened, our prejudices challenged; we laugh; we cry; we share; we live. What’s not to love?

Lancaster Library (including Lancaster Fun Palace), The Melodrome at The Eden Festival, The Devonshire Cat, Sheffield (with Drunken Chorus) are just some of the places ELART Productions has enjoyed making theatre this year so far…
