Episode 108: "Stirring Up Sheffield" with Tedd George
Manage episode 433887906 series 2655920
In the 1960s, the English city of Sheffield began work on a new theatre. The new venue, called the Crucible, became an important landmark in the development of theatre in the UK, as well as a point of contention nationwide. At the center of it all was Colin George, who spearheaded the building of the Crucible and fought for its then-unconventional design. Although George passed away in 2016, his memoirs of this era appear in a new book, Stirring Up Sheffield: An Insider’s Account of the Battle to Build the Crucible Theatre. It’s co-authored by Dr. Edward George, an economist, broadcaster, and writer who’s especially well-placed to help tell the story, since he’s also Colin’s son. Tedd George joins us to talk about the Crucible and Colin George's legacy.
