💜 SWEENEY TODD — GIVING BACK 💜

There was one more thing happening after each performance of Sweeney Todd that we wanted to share…

Our incredible cast took to the front of the theatre after every show to collect donations for a very special local charity — Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice in Huddersfield.

And what a response we received. 🥹

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our patrons, we raised an amazing £400! 🎉

We are so proud that alongside bringing this extraordinary show to the stage, our cast and audience were able to make a difference to a charity doing such important work in our local community.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who donated. Every single penny will help support the incredible work of Forget Me Not charity. 💜

KYTE — bringing people together, on and off the stage. ✨
