Recently our Senior House Manager Andy took one of the marketing team (and their camera!) on a socially distanced backstage tour of Darlington Hippodrome.

Andy led us around some of the places the public doesn't usually get to see. We looked at the scene dock where all the scenery, costumes and technical equipment is brought in for each show, he showed us the stage with its iron curtain, we looked at the fly floor and finally he took us for a sneak peek inside a dressing room.

Watch the video below:


There's a lot more to see and learn about in the theatre so if you have suggestions of any areas you're curious about, let us know by emailing hippodrome.info@darlington.gov.uk and we'll see what we can do!
