An Olympic hopeful. A political car crash. The fallout from a fictional nuclear winter. Join Sheffield Theatres live for stories of solidarity and survival from the Steel City, soundtracked by new versions of classics from some of Sheffield’s most celebrated artists.
From writer Chris Bush (Standing at the Sky’s Edge), The Band Plays On is a rousing night of extraordinary tales and live music. The performance will be filmed at the Crucible Theatre and made available to watch online from Monday 15 to Sunday 28 March 2021.
