Top Girls

Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse announce their 2023 season and new associate companies.

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Caryl Churchill re-locates her classic Top Girls to Liverpool, while the world stage première of The Beekeeper of Aleppo visits Liverpool ahead of a national tour.

Adjoa Andoh returns to the stage to direct and star as Shakespeare’s iconic anti-hero Richard III and a funked-up remix of Alice in Wonderland promises a modern riff on a classic.

A cohort of six associate companies (20 Stories High, Cardboard Citizens, Graeae, Homotopia, New Earth, Talawa Theatre Company) are confirmed as Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse works with arts practitioners from around the country.
