Talking Heads - Susan, Doris And Irene

Six of Alan Bennett’s iconic monologues are presented at the Playhouse in a celebration of one of Leeds’ best-loved playwrights. Graham, Peggy and Muriel and Susan, Doris and Irene are standalone events; audiences can enjoy one or both, and in any order.

An iconic collection of witty, poignant and insightful reflections, Talking Heads is the uplifting and heart-warming finale to the current season on the Courtyard stage.
