Last Friday saw the first show at our designed Anglo-Saxon theatre at Bede's World. How to bring heritage to life? Let the community use it!

A lovely Summer's evening, a lovely location, a lovely Anglo Saxon theatre, a lovely community event!

 
Show time! 'A funny thing happened on the way to Durham'. A comedy based around the Lindesfarne Gospels! 

 
The audience take their seats.
