Sinfonia is a new work by The Performance Ensemble as part of 1001 Stories, a ground-breaking collaboration between The Performance Ensemble, Leeds Playhouse, Leeds Museums and Galleries and Leeds Older People’s Forum for LEEDS 2023.

A Leeds Playhouse & The Performance Ensemble co-production.

Sinfonia is part of the 1001 Stories Festival, a revolutionary two-week takeover of every space at Leeds Playhouse from 24 April – 6 May 2023, where older people perform, exhibit and express their stories of lives lived to the fullest.
