The Arts Council England-funded project Appetite, which CCU evaluates, brings Roundabout to Stoke-on-Trent for a second year running. Roundabout is a comfy in-the-round theatre by the acclaimed Paines Plough which seats you up close to the action. In October Stoke-on-Trent will once again host a four day festival of brand new plays by some of the country’s top writers plus live music, comedy and much more in this wonderful space.
