School headteacher John Moss has invited a class from each Tomorden school free of charge to come to the matinee performance, also Ferney Lee Residential Care residents.

The children taking part in the competition were asked to focus on their learning regarding the Victorians. Harley’s fabulous poster, which draws on the stark darkness of the drama production, is being used as the promotional material around Calderdale.
