HLGBT Performing Arts York have produced The Anne Lister Play, a modern re-enactment of Anne Lister’s life, reflecting the present day lesbian community of Yorkshire. Anne Lister was openly lesbian in Yorkshire during the 18th and 19th centuries. More details about her can be found in the BBC article The life and loves of Shibden Hall’s Anne Lister.
The play is to take place at 19:00 on Wednesday 19 November at Monroe’s Showbar, and will be followed by a short question and answer session by Helena Whitbread, Lister’s biographer. The play will also feature in next year’s York LGBT History Month programme. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit the HLGBT Performing Arts York blog.
