About the project - Ahead of His Time: John Rylands, social investor in Stretford and the Stretford Public Hall

The amazing story of John Rylands, Stretford multi-millionaire, social investor and builder of Stretford Public Hall  was created and devised by local young people with words, music and drama.


This was a partnership project between Stretford Children’s Theatre and The People’s History Museum, funded by The Heritage Lottery Young Roots Fund with support from The Stretford Public Hall and The Friends of Longford Park. We will worked with 17 young people aged 12 - 14 from Jan - July 2018. It was  facilitated through the mediums of drama, music and creative writing and included visiting a number of heritage sites such as The John Rylands Library and Quarry Bank Mill. It incorporated weekly drama sessions culminating in 5 promenade performance in May/June 2018 at the Stretford Public Hall. The performance was devised by the young people involved and was young people led.
