Organisers of Liverpool Theatre Festival has revealed plans for this year’s headline and fringe events—with the first six shows already on sale.
The fourth annual event is back with a new date—this year taking place in summer 2023. New works and fringe event Little LTF will go ahead in the autumn. The changes ensure no clash with the city’s Eurovision celebrations.
Both events will again take place at St Luke’s Bombed Out Church in Liverpool city centre.
Last year, the festival boasted its biggest and most diverse programme to date featuring variety and cabaret, comedy, opera, drama, musicals, family shows, and drag acts.
This year two new commissions will be premièred in July.
Sober Companion is written by and starring Joe McGann and Jake Norton, and new children’s show Fred The Musical is based on the book about a fire-sneezing dragon by Fay Evans.
