That this House congratulates Harrogate Theatre on reaching its 125th anniversary this year; recognises the organisation’s work since it was founded in 1900, with programmes including live events such as theatre, comedy, music and dance, hosting touring productions, producing its own award winning pantomime, hosting community companies, supporting emerging artists through its Artist Development Hub and last, but by no means least, running its own youth theatre providing young people with the opportunity to try out different theatre skills and explore their own creativity; and further recognises its place as a much loved cultural centre in the heart of Harrogate.
