The winner of this year's Most Welcoming Theatre Award sponsored by theatretokens is Leeds Playhouse for their inviting, engaging, accessible and inclusive creative environment + being the first Theatre of Sanctuary for refugees + people seeking asylum #UKTAwards

It’s been almost a month since our Theatre for Change event with @CrucibleTheatre and Ramps On The Moon and we’re still buzzing from everything we learned, shared and discussed that day. Here’s a flavour of what went on – and a reminder of why Access Shouldn’t Be An Afterthought. 🎞️ 👇

Huge thank you to our amazing #MotherOfTheRevolution work-in-progress audience last night, our exceptional community choir, our brilliant cast and team and the wonders at Leeds Industrial Museum for all their support Leeds Museums & Galleries. Hopefully only the start of the revolution ✨
