A to Z of Leicester: Y is for...

Y Theatre

Today, Leicester’s Y theatre is a bustling, live performance venue. Long ago, when it was the old YMCA, I made my performing debut on its stage with the lead part in a play that won the Leicestershire Youth Drama Festival.

    It was a fabulously atmospheric theatre to perform in. I played the lead woman in a play called Dark Brown. Don't remember anything else about it except that my husband was a hangman... woops! I've told you how it ends now ;-)
