Description

Theatre Company Blah Blah Blah invites you to take a walk through Leeds city centre to go on a journey back in time and hear from some amazing people in history – war heroes, circus entertainers, suffragettes, and more! All you need is a mobile phone or MP3 player and headphones. This entertaining and engaging sound experience is free and perfect for the whole family to enjoy together.

Listen to all the stories and download a map to follow online here: www.stirringupthepast.org

At each stop there is someone waiting to tell you an extraordinary story about their life and explain why the place where you are is important to them.

Discover the daring suffragette who went to Armley Jail after fighting for what she believed; a war hero defending a country he had just arrived in; a circus ringleader whose death-defying arena became the scene of a huge disaster; and a stall owner’s success turning his penny bazaar into one of the most famous stores in the world. It all started in the centre of Leeds...
