The Hartlepool Monkey: Homecoming
In 2017, Gyre & Gimble and Fuel created a hit stage show based on the tale that has survived the test of time and captured imaginations for over 200 years: the legend of The Hartlepool Monkey.

And now, in 2020, we are working with people across Hartlepool to explore myth and mystery (or the facts and history!) of the monkey who came to town.

Your stories, ideas and imaginations will be celebrated during the Wintertide Festival with a series of short films created by students at the Northern School of Art.

Join us in some modern, monkey mischief as we mark the legacy of The Hartlepool Monkey in today’s world.
