Comments Off on Auguste Van Biene: The Man Who Made the Empire, Cleethorpes

Auguste Van Biene was one of the most influential figures in British popular entertainment at the turn of the 20th century — actor, composer, theatre manager and impresario. His vision helped shape the Empire Theatre, Cleethorpes, and placed the town firmly on the national entertainment map.

Join us for this illustrated talk and recital by music historian, Dr George Kennaway who will bring Van Biene’s remarkable life and work vividly to life, exploring melodrama, music hall, touring theatre and the birth of seaside entertainment culture.

A fascinating evening for anyone interested in theatre history, music, or the hidden stories behind Cleethorpes’ most iconic venue.
