The new 2018 Studio season at Manchester’s Royal Exchange is a mix of ambitious theatre for all the family; from The Greatest Play In The History Of The World, a love story set in space and time, to Little Angel’s puppet show Sleepyhead, for younger audience members.

The work this season also spills out on to St Ann’s Square as a shipping container becomes the stage for the terrifying Séance from Darkfield.

From September 2018 through to March 2019, the venue’s studio is alive with some of the "most unexpected" theatre from companies from across the country.
