Circus of Horrors returns to Manchester Palace next Wednesday.

A new adaptation of Charles Dickens’s great Northern novel Hard Times is coming to Lancaster’s Dukes Theatre, just a few miles from the city of Preston which inspired it.

Returning to Lancaster Arts at Lancaster University next Thursday after their successful showing in 2017, Verve—the postgraduate performance company of Northern School of Contemporary Dance—will be performing a mixed bill of dance.

Philip Ridley’s heartbreaking modern classic Vincent River—relocated to Manchester—has its regional première at the award-winning Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester.
