Trinity Theatre x Woodbury Park Cemetery: the architecture of mortality
Church Road, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN1 1JP
This exhibition is part of a series of events held in collaboration between Trinity Theatre and the Friends of Woodbury Park Cemetery. Since Woodbury Park Cemetery opened in 1849 when Holy Trinity churchyard was considered ‘full’ and it was originally known as Trinity New Cemetery, we’re celebrating the long link between the cemetery and today’s Trinity Theatre.
We’ll be considering how Holy Trinity church (today’s Trinity Theatre) and Woodbury Park Cemetery are linked and how the architecture of both places reflects Victorian attitudes to mortality. The history of Holy Trinity church and Woodbury Park cemetery will be explored in terms of the structures and layout but also how Victorian Tunbridge Wells interacted with them.
Please have a look at the listings about our documentary screening (‘The Trinity Trine’) and a walk around Woodbury Park Cemetery. The documentary screening will be held at Trinity Theatre and the walk will be at Woodbury Park Cemetery.
