THE BIG THEATRE PURGE!
11 Years of Props, Costumes, Set Pieces & MORE!


For 11 years, BYR has collected the things that make magic happen onstage — fabulous costumes, quirky props, giant set pieces, mysterious objects we swore we’d use again.

Thus, a Yard Sale… with DRAMA!

Come rummage through 11 years of theatrical history and take home a piece of the show. From costumes, conversation pieces, DIY treasures, or something you absolutely cannot explain but MUST HAVE, we’ve got you covered.

EVERYTHING MUST GO.
Because apparently, “we might need that someday” is no longer a viable storage strategy.

Once upon a time, in a small working class community in Northern England, before the dawn of American Idol and The Voice, there lived a daughter and a mother, struggling to make ends meet after the untimely passing the daughter’s father.
Afraid to go outside or even to speak, the daughter, nicknamed Little Voice, finds sanctuary in her room singing along to the only thing her father left behind — old records from a bygone era.
A fateful encounter with a shady promoter propels Little Voice into the white hot spotlight and the possibility of fame and fortune.
This timeless tale explores the highs and the lows of small-town dreams, family rivalry, and finding your voice in a noisy world.
