The Stories We Tell
A celebration of work which platforms the experiences of individuals, whether that be the beautiful everyday world of family or those pushing at the boundaries of their field.
With Little Women, Louisa May Alcott wove her own personal story in with that of the beloved March sisters with such heart that almost 160 years later, both artists and audiences alike still flock to it.

Inspired by this, we’ve brought together a short season of other works in which a range of creatives use music, poetry, theatre and film to bring to life a range of similar stories, celebrating how the work we share can help interpret the most personal of experiences to empower, inform and uplift.

More about The Stories We Tell
The seasonal work invites audiences to discover fresh perspectives, explore new artistic experiences, and perhaps visit one of our venues for the first time.
CEO, Vicky Cheetham, said: “This has been an exciting opportunity to curate diverse seasons of work across our spaces, bringing together multiple art forms such as film, theatre, and music. Our organisation can explore themes from multiple perspectives, sparking new conversations, connections, and experiences for both our audiences and those discovering our spaces for the first time.”
