About this audio guide
This guide to the Everyman Theatre on Liverpool's Hope Street goes downstairs, to the basement bistro that Paddy Byrne and Dave Scott opened in nineteen seventy and ran for four decades. It follows the people who cooked and served there, from a teenage running captain turned restaurateur to a nineteen-year-old who walked into the kitchen in nineteen ninety. Listen from the pavement facing the front, where the faces on the shutters look back at you.
