“I am George Stephenson”

Picture
Created by the young people of Graves Youth Theatre (GYT) and Paul Whitfield.

GYT is really excited to present their first production. This humorous look at the life of George Stephenson will be on tour in Oct/Nov 2025. Dates to be announced at the beginning of August.

This has all been possible because of the generous support of: East Midlands Railway, CrossCountry Trains, Northern Railway, High Peak and Hope Valley Community Rail Partnership, the Brian Sellars Trust, and the Graves Ward Councillors (Sheffield City Council).

To find out more about the production and its story please follow this link: I am George Stephenson


​Paul and Gertie Whitfield currently run GYT through Whitworks Adventures in Theatre (WAT). WAT ensures safeguarding, risk assessment etc is in line with their policies.
