Spring from Quarantine

Manchester-based theatre company Quarantine is inviting pregnant women from the Greater Manchester region to take part in a new theatre performance project, Spring.

It’s the final part of a quartet of performances about the human life-cycle and will be made in a co-production with HOME and Contact and performed four times in a specially-built theatre space inside Manchester’s Old Granada Studios between March 25 and April 3.

Spring is about expecting, in both senses of the word, with up to 15 women at various stages of pregnancy asking hundreds of questions about the future, live on-stage.

Quarantine is not looking for actors. No previous performance experience is necessary and there are no lines to learn. The call-out is for women from a range of backgrounds who can each bring their own voice to the project.

Those wishing to take part will need to be no more than eight months pregnant at the beginning of April.
