Yasmin is young and feisty and lives on the edge. A young mum, her Scarborough isn’t sandcastles, arcades and donkey rides. She’s been dealt a rough hand and has to decide whether to give in or get smart. But can the thing which threatens to ruin her life be the one thing which saves her? Can she still be the architect of her own destiny? An explosive and passionate portrait of a young heroine of our times.

Four of William Shakespeare’s greatest plays will be performed in repertory over the 10-week summer season: Macbeth, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Romeo and Juliet and Richard III.

JOKING APART

The League of Gentlemen will return to the stage this year for their first UK tour in over 12 years with their brand new live show. Reece Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton, Mark Gatiss and Jeremy Dyson bring their dark and unhinged fictional village of Royston Vasey to York.

For Richard and Anthea everything in life just falls into place. With their warmth, careless charm, generosity and business success they are a truly happy, golden couple. But quiet misery, unrequited love and jealousy play their part in this painfully funny comedy.
