I’d never heard of Accidental Theatre before, but next week they’re opening what looks like an interesting production in a fascinating venue in Anne Street in Belfast, Riddel’s Warehouse. It’s that rather anonymous industrial building beside Musgrave Police Station.
It’s a too-rare example of Belfast waking up to its own built environmental history before it gets smashed to pulp for sake of posterity.
As this great youtube video shows, most of our buildings are full of great stories of where we came from in the not too distant past…
