Curtains up on the new Sheffield Theatres homepage

Posted: July 16 2008 by Katherine Greenacre in Work

We gave the Sheffield Theatres website a makeover this week by redesigning their home page.

Before

After

A refresh of the design was long overdue but with the famous Crucible Theatre closed for refurbishment until late 2009 (don’t worry – it reopens briefly for the snooker next year!) there were other reasons for the change — the Theatres needed to reinforce the message that there are still lots of great productions on at The Lyceum as well as reporting on the progress of the building work.

The refurbishment of The Crucible — a Grade II listed building — is an exciting £15 million project for Sheffield funded by Arts Council England, European Regional Development Fund, Yorkshire Forward and Sheffield City Council.

the next stage identity

We were involved in the change management project, creating the identity for the next stage — a communications approach for managing the public perceptions during the disruption and closure at the theatres.

You can get involved by sponsoring a seat or adopting a light in the auditorium.

It’s great to have had the chance to revisit a website that we first designed over 5 years ago!
