Leeds Gilbert & Sullivan Society
The Carriageworks Theatre
Led by Leeds Gilbert & Sullivan Society’s award-winning duo, Anita Adams (Director) and Adam Boniface (Musical Director), Titanic the Musical tells the epic story of the sinking of the Titanic in the early hours of 15 April 1912.
A total of 1,517 men, women and children lost their lives (only 711 survived). The fact that the finest, largest, and strongest ship in the world – the “unsinkable” ship – should have been lost during its maiden voyage is so incredible that, had it not actually happened, no author would have dared to contrive it.
Titanic the Musical examines the causes, conditions and real characters involved in this ever-fascinating drama. This is the factual story of that ship and the lives of her officers, crew and passengers, and how the ship itself served as a microcosm of the 19th century class system. It exposes deep flaws and how the disaster forever dispelled the unswerving belief of the time, that God favours the rich.
Wednesday 12th June - Saturday 15th June
LIDOS
The Carriageworks Theatre
School of Rock follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There, he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out?
Join award-winning LIDOS as they celebrate their 50th year by bringing roof-raising energy that will fill the theatre with the spirit of rock with this production and their sensational live kid’s rock band!.

Leeds Arts Centre
The Carriageworks Theatre
Welcome to the city on midsummer’s eve, where the mortal and the magical realms collide. Where noble lords and ladies feud, their mischievous servants close at hand. Where four young lovers flee, in hopes of marrying for love rather than duty. And where a troupe of unlikely actors plan the show to end all shows.
Join Leeds Arts Centre for a raucous, vibrant, and contemporary retelling of William Shakespeare’s enthralling and joyous comedy. A story of love, duty, chaos and magic.
