Bronzehead Theatre

We adapt classic texts for unusual spaces. Year off in 2020- look out for more details on our plans for 2021!

We are deeply saddened by the death of Richard Easterbrook, who played Duke of York in Richard II in 2015 and 2016. He was a long-standing friend to many of us in the company, and a true delight to work with - deeply kind and full of joy. Our thoughts are with his family.

[Bronzehead Theatre @BronzeHeadTC]

The reading will take place on Tuesday 1st June at 7.30pm, broadcast online. Further details (including tickets) to follow!

[Bronzehead Theatre @BronzeHeadTC]

We're (briefly) back for @YorkShakes - with a rehearsed reading of Richard Brome's The Northern Lass. Bronzehead veteran @clmo90 returns as the eponymous Northern Lass, with @jamescswanton as her uncle Squelch...

@unicornthejayne @jamescswanton @tomstrasz A thought very much on our minds- we will be back next year, but in what form is yet to be seen...

[James Swanton @jamescswanton]

Here's a terrific preview for my upcoming play IRVING UNDEAD, in which I'm described (too flatteringly) as 'a heartthrob of the nineteenth-century Grotesque.' Click for this and other equally choice quotations! https://t.co/eAn7Jewn2y

Henry Irving. Queen Victoria knighted him. Oscar Wilde applauded him. Bram Stoker (and Dracula) immortalised him. And now I'll finally be playing him. Gulp. IRVING UNDEAD will have its first previews at York Medical Society on 10th, 11th and 12th October. https://t.co/EL6NVaBbVb

The chairs are stacked, the lights are off, the signs rolled up, the costumes and masks packed away, the actors off to stages elsewhere. York International Shakespeare Festival 2019 is over. #yorkshakes19

[Bronzehead Theatre @BronzeHeadTC]

We are gone but @yorkshakes lives on! In our place at the Dogrose is @itsLenaTo's Winter's Tale, a puppetry-driven exploration of jealousy, redemption, and big furry animals. #thedogrose #yorkshakes19

Loved every minute of The Alchemist performed by @BronzeHeadTC at the new pop-up theatre the Dogrose 🎭for @YorkShakes Energetic, witty & original show that made me feel less guilty for ‘betraying’ Will Shakes for Ben Johnson. Bring on your next production!

Some familiar names among the principal tragedians. And just look how readable it is compared to Shakespeare's First Folio.
