Final Farewell from Co-Founder Tessa Hart

19/3/2022

We don’t believe journeys ever come to an end, they just change directions or split paths sometimes. Our Co-Founder Tessa’s time has come now to split paths with the wonderful endeavour of The Bread & Roses Theatre for good. Having left the UK exactly 4 years ago and stepped down as the theatre’s Artistic Director, Tessa stayed on as an Executive Director and there was much to manage for the theatre to make it through Covid-closures and what not. Our journey with trying out the space and how we could work together as people (or not) started 10 years ago in 2012, the theatre then officially opened in 2014.

‘Co-Founding this theatre, serving as its Co-Director, growing with this project for about a decade, has been a life-changing and life-shaping journey.’

Now it’s time to cherish the journey travelled together and the many journeys ahead, as Tessa bids farewell fully and also steps down as Executive Director and company owner. The theatre remains in the most incredible and capable hands, of course, of Co-Founder & Managing Director Rebecca Pryle, Artistic Director since 2018 Velenzia Spearpoint and the whole ever-growing theatre team and community.

And, if you fancy saying “hi” and/or “bye”, come join us on Tuesday 29th March at 5:30pm for a final farewell get-together, as it’ll also be Tessa’s first actual visit since 2019! ​(Current in-house production Who You Are and What You Do is also on at 7:30pm that day, if you fancy catching that too, whilst you’re there.)
