Just out of an excellent meeting on the #Sheffield culture strategy at the The National Videogame Museum. And so so proud of myself for not playing Sonic on the megadrive on my way out


Was about to say that I had a great time Utopia Theatre today…then I realised I always have a good time there. Mojisola Kareem & co have created a beautiful & welcoming space on Rockingham Gate in #Sheffield… Anyway, you should really book for this: sheffieldtheatres.co.uk/events/death-a…

It was great to welcome our new #Sheffield Central MP Abtisam Mohamed to the Crucible Theatre & SheffieldLyceum yesterday!


Thank you Tom Bird for showing me round our wonderful ground-breaking theatres! The Crucible Theatre and SheffieldLyceum are central to the beating heart of our city centre. Lots of great things taking place and I'm excited for what will come 🙌 🎭 #sheffieldissuper

So delighted to welcome Viper to the SheffieldLyceum this Christmassssssssssssssss!!!! 🐍

Carl Woodward For me I’ve seen shows that have changed my life at my theatres! I cannot begin to tell you how valuable Crucible Theatre & SheffieldLyceum are to not only me but the whole of Sheffield and the country!

Back on here with a bit of hope. I’m in Liverpool at the Creative UK ITV event. Invigorating to hear Lisa Nandy MP backing both culture & sport as growth engines. As a major theatre & a major sporting venue, we’re here for both. Crucible Theatre SheffieldLyceum #Sheffield

Lucy Ashton Tom Bird Tom Bird & team buy ice cream from us, culture also offers a huge boost to Sheffield buisneses like us & due to the multiplier effect of buying ‘local’ a fantastic economic benefit to Sheffield too. The theatres support means solar pannles being installed to power freezers 👍🏻



Lovely afternoon Park Community Arena Ltd. watching B. Braun Sheffield Sharks beat Manchester Manchester Basketball 🏀 🦈 Had a long autumnal walk along the #Sheffield Tinsley Canal to get there.


Went to KenRex at Crucible Theatre - you should go if you can. Genius, inventive theatre.
