Actors recreate the day the Pride march came to Huddersfield in support of the local gay community.
The time the national Pride march decamped from London to Huddersfield has been recreated by actors.
The Gemini Club had been labelled "a cesspit of filth" by police, so Pride moved to Huddersfield in solidarity. The playwright wrote monologues based on interviews with people who took part, along with Abi Hynes, Peter Scott-Presland and Hayden Sugden Prof Sue Sanders, chair of LGBTQ+ History Month and Schools OUT UK, said the Pride event in Huddersfield was "a wonderful piece of forgotten history that needs to be known across the UK"."These performances are not just creating some wonderful new theatre, they bringing the past to life in a wonderful, vivid and highly entertaining way."
