As the last Director of the old Derby Playhouse in Sacheverel Street and the first Director of the new what was then Derby Playhouse in the Eagle Centre, there is a part of me which rather wishes the
Hippodrome had been available in 1975 ! Now that the Derby Theatre lives again, with much thanks to the University and great gripfulness by the new management, and the Assembly Halls have become a problem, it seems that this is Derby's last chance to provide a really integrated Arts buildings offer. Sheffield, Eastbourne and other places run successful multi - venue 'offers'. If Derby could somehow do so, it would enormously enhance Derby's attractiveness as a location for businesses, etc to move to / consider, surely. RAM it home - bring it on !
