Encounters

Opens: 05/02/2012 Closes: 26/02/2012 The Hepworth Wakefield, West Yorkshire

Let your imagination wander with this new promenade-style production aimed at young adults, in which the audience is invited to shape the fate of two love-struck protagonists. A great opportunity to explore the new Hepworth Wakefield building, too, designed by David Chipperfield, as the action unfolds throughout its galleries.
