V-Day : The Vagina Monologues @ ERT
A packed house for two nights running at East Riding Theatre, V-Day : The Vagina Monologues proved to be a massive hit this week in Beverley.
East Riding Theatre
Beverley’s East Riding Theatre opened in December 2014 delivering high quality drama, music and entertainment. It is a community effort, run largely by over one hundred local volunteers.
Dame Judi Dench is Patron, and international film and television actor (and Beverley resident) Vincent Regan is Creative Director and an original founder of the theatre.
The ERT receives no public funding, relying on ticket sales and corporate sponsors to sustain its overheads. Its productions to date include: ‘Hamlet’, ‘As We Forgive Them’, ‘A Christmas Carol’, ‘Oliver Twist’, ‘A Steady Rain’ and ‘Sparrow.’ The ERT café bar is open Tuesday to Saturday 10.30 – 16.00
