Nine acts. One live band. Seamlessly woven together.

Blending emerging voices with established theatre-makers, this year’s lineup features work from:

Martina Laird (RSC, Kiln Theatre), Hassan Abdulrazzak (Soho Theatre, Arcola Theatre), alongside Chelsea Bondzanga, Louis Caitliff, Lucy Ellis, Joshua Haigh, Pound Puppy, Julia Rudd, and Isabella Thompson.

Step into the absurd world of chaos where drama, sketch, clowning, and dance collide. 

A celebration of the incredible new writing talent emerging from the Manchester Writing School at Manchester Metropolitan University and the University of Manchester’s Centre for New Writing.
