Star scheme helps new centre at Wakefield Theatre Royal
The campaign asked businesses to purchase a star to be displayed on a wall of fame at the centre. All contributions are used to pay for the final fixtures and fittings at the theatre’s extension on Westgate.
The new building aims to extends the theatre experience, encouraging performers and visitors to meet, eat, drink, entertain and enjoy.
