Kate Humble is coming to Theatr Brycheiniog on the 5th June, 7. 30pm
Kate was born in 1968 and grew up in rural Berkshire in a house next to a farm. She had what she describes as a ‘proper childhood’ – building camps, racing snails, climbing trees, interspersed with trips to A&E to patch up things when they broke. Since then, Kate has had a fascinating career; the second series of Kate’s popular BBC programme Back to the Land attracted great audiences and was be the latest in a long line of programmes Kate has presented for the BBC including Springwatch and Autumm Watch, Wild Shepherdess, Yellowstone: Wildest Winter to Blazing Summer, Curious Creatures and Extreme Wives with Kate Humble.
This is a unique opportunity to go ‘behind the camera’ as Kate describes how the programmes are made along with some lovely anecdotes about the filming. The audience will also have the opportunity to ask Kate questions during the show. Theatr Brycheiniog is also excited to be hosting an accompanying book signing event where audience members will have the opportunity to meet Kate and purchase a copy of her new book. brycheiniog.co.uk / 01874 611622

The workshop will take place on the stage at Theatr Brycheiniog on the 9th June 11am, where an aerial rig has been set up for the performance.
