New dates and casting have been announced for C-o-n-t-a-c-t, the ideal socially-distanced production, set and performed in Salford Quays and Central Manchester from Tuesday 18 May to Tuesday 29 June 2021. Throughout this interactive outdoor show, the audience follows the action as it unfolds, listening to 3D sound design through headphones. The two-hander show follows Sarah, who is approached by a stranger who can hear her thoughts and explores themes of mental health and anxiety.
Each show is 50 minutes without interval and audiences download the audio from an app that synchronizes the spectators and the actors. The reduced audience capacity of seventeen allows both for an intimate and unique experience, as well as for the show to adhere to COVID-safe measures in place for businesses and the performing arts as set out by the government.
C-o-n-t-a-c-t is produced by Aria Entertainment, WEF Productions and the Lowry, alongside an international creative team. The cast includes Charles Angiama, Chloe Gentles, Rachael Gill-Davis and Cellan Scott. Tickets are on sale for £19.50 and £22.50. To learn more and book your tickets, follow the link below.
