Want to tell your story? Or hear about the lives of others? Hidden Lives is a Heritage Lottery funded project, looking at the secret life-stories of people living in the vicinity of The Picturedrome. Hundreds of people have already come forward to share their biographies, resulting in two public exhibitions and a new website-based archive. Some of the life stories heard so far have been specially chosen to make up the content of a new play, currently being created by our Head of Outreach, Adam Fotheringham. This play will be presented by a cast of four actors on Sat 25 Feb 3pm and 7.30pm at The Picturedrome.
