Firearms and Fingertips

Firearms and Fingertips, at Manchester’s Royal Exchange Theatre November 27-30, is a critically-acclaimed play aimed at young people aged 10+ and some free tickets are available.

Shooting victim Spencer is being willed back to life by his distraught mother as he lies in his hospital bed. At the same time, two agents of death, Chalice and Brown are callously killing time until The Grim Reaper arrives.

It’s a modern day morality tale about the consequences of guns in society by critically-acclaimed musician, filmmaker and playwright James Shaw.

Spoken word, visual art and projection combine with a live soundtrack provided by scratch champion DJ Rasp.
