Commissioned by Bryony
Lavery, a stage adaptation of Behind The Scenes At The Museum
was performed at the York Theatre Royal, in York - where Atkinson's
story is set - from 26 October to 18 November 2000 under the direction
of artistic director Damian Cruden.
Atkinson's story is set in a flat above the pet shop in a street beneath
York Minster, where Bunty has a growing family and diminishing dreams.
Daughter Ruby tells the story of The Family, from the end of the 19th
century when a travelling photographer catches frail, beautiful Alice
and her children, to the startling, witty and memorable events of
Ruby's own life.
