What else are they up to?
Action Transport Theatre are undergoing a significant capital project which will result in the transformation of locally listed Whitby Hall into a vibrant and welcoming community arts space in Whitby Park, Ellesmere Port.
The company want people to know about this continuing, exciting and ambitious project for a much loved, but run-down building and look forward to welcoming them when this new art space opens in the future.
Whitby Park Summer Fun is just one of many projects which local people can get involved with as part of an outreach programme underpinning this development.
