For the first time in history, Moth Sanctuary Productions staged a performance of the banned play ‘The King in Yellow’ exclusively at Cheltenham Literature Festival.
Inviting audiences to follow the Yellow Sign to The Wilson Art Gallery and Museum on Saturday 8th October 2022, some were never seen again.
