Sarah Hyde

Location

Sarah spent her formative years trying to sit still in her woolly tights on the scratchy green banquettes at the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester. A space that she grew to know intimately. During the interval she was always peeping into the quick-change dressing rooms, trying to find out how it worked and casing the place for the best places to hide. Now, an international Art Writer she is delighted to be out of her comfort zone and back in the theatre.
