8. Hull Truck Theatre
History
The Hull Truck Theatre was founded in 1971 by actor Mike Bradwell when he could not find work. He placed an ad' in Time Out magazine saying, "Half-formed theatre company seeks other half". John Godber joined as Artistic Director in 1984 - his most famous works being "Bouncers" and "Up n' Under". From 1983, the theatre was based in Spring Street until a new £14.5m venue was built and opened in 2009 as part of the St Stephens development.
2017
The theatre has played a major part in Hull2017. It was the focal point of the bid winners announcement in 2013 and the national programme launch for the first season was presented from here in September 2016. A brand new play "The Hypocrite" by hull born playwright Richard Bean was commisioned for 2017, telling the story of the beginning of the English Civil War which started in Hull. Jointly produced by Hull Truck and the RSC, it starred Mark Addy and Caroline Quentin. Many more plays and performances will be ongoing throughout the year
