Peter Reid is stepping down as the Chair of Solar Bear.

His contribution has been immense, having joined the company from its start over 20 years ago. From that point he helped to guide Solar Bear into a pioneering theatre company working with deaf and hearing actors, theatre makers, artists and young people.

Over that time there have been countless performances, tours, workshops, training opportunities, partnerships and collaborations. Behind the scenes, Pete has been a part of each one of them and has treasured every success and taken on every challenge. This includes helping to steer the financial and artistic strategy with Solar Bear’s Creative Directors, previously Gerry Ramage and now Jonathan Lloyd.

Thank you Pete, you have been a star and leave an amazing legacy. We look forward to welcoming you back to many more events and performances in the future.

Best wishes,

The Solar Bear Team
