The Sounds Of England initiative aims to help writers discover their original voice.
The Lowry will host a “work in progress” showing of two original new thirty minute musicals.
The Signalman
Presents the chilling Victorian ghost story in three short scenes set over three consecutive evenings – A gentleman on vacation in the English countryside happens upon an isolated signalbox with mysterious and sinister consequences…
Moving On
An Underground Lost Property man invites us to search though his shelves of lost items. As he touches objects he conjures up fragments of people’s lives echoes of lives past and present just like ours. Forgotten, dropped or discarded under London.
Will The Signalman or Moving On be the next Les Miserables, Blood Brothers or Billy Elliott? Come along and find out!
Both shows presented one after the other on both nights.
Showcasing a range of new and innovative theatre from local and emerging companies. This is your chance to catch the very best in up-and-coming talent.
