Did industrial workers in Victorian Lancashire have time to participate in literary culture and leisure pursuits? From the Factory Acts to the First World War, this tour will explore archives that illuminate lively networks of poets and performers, humourists, authors, dramatists and theatregoers all belonging to Lancashire’s urban communities.
We are excited to welcome Workers' Playtime curator Dr Janette Martin, who will be guiding this in-depth tour.
This is a free, drop in tour at The Rylands.
