Pete's Allotment Story

Afternoons on BBC Radio Leeds

Available for over a year

Pete Clarke brings us a real-life short story about how his allotment helped him cope in the aftermath of his marriage break-up. The Performance Ensemble's members are all over 60 years old and have gathered stories of the Leeds' older generation, with a view to putting them together for a final production for the 2023 Cultural Festival. These real-life tales were written and recorded by members of the theatre company for broadcast on BBC Radio Leeds.
