The Grade II listed Leeds Grand Theatre will reopen next month after a closure of almost three months.

Built in 1878 as a major milestone in Victorian design, the New Briggate theatre has been undergoing essential maintenance work since June 10.

It has included “future-proofing” the auditorium, as improvements to sound and lighting quality were made.

Now, the theatre is almost ready to reopen with a series of exciting shows including comedy and music.

Here are seven upcoming shows that you can see at the Leeds Grand Theatre when it reopens on September 5 -
