West Yorkshire Playhouse has changed its name to Leeds Playhouse.
The name change marks a new chapter in the theatre’s 50 year history, embracing its role at the heart of the cultural life in the Leeds City Region, and echoing the original name of the Playhouse which first opened in 1970.
The Playhouse’s renaming comes at a key time for the organisation, as it embarks on a capital redevelopment project resulting in a city-facing entrance, improved access and the opening of the Bramall Rock Void, a new third performance space within the foundations of the theatre.
