We’re on an exciting journey in theatres and unusual performing spaces around the region whilst our new permanent home is being prepared at First Street in Manchester City Centre. After 58 years in the basement of Manchester Central Library, we are presenting from the Lowry three times a year plus staging new and highly ambitious works across Manchester City Centre before teaming up with Cornehouse in our new home.

We’re working on a redesign of this page to bring you more news and pictures as our new company and venue takes shape.
