Don’t miss: Our top picks of Contact Theatre’s re-opening programme

Contact Young Company presents Everything All of the Time, a thought-provoking evening of music, dance and theatre that draws inspiration from sources spanning both geographic and generic boundaries – from Gaika’s music videos to Benji Reid’s photography and Bo Burnham’s Inside.

This physical and visual journey through a new world asks: what now, what has changed and what needs to change?

This kaleidoscopic and explosive autobiographical piece of storytelling expertly combines original beats with poetry and movement to explore questions of sexuality, identity, and self-discovery.

Writer and performer Mandla Rae takes audiences on a journey of discovery and rebirth in this unflinching autofiction narrative piece that explores Mandla’s fragmented asylum and migration memories.

Through immersive musical soundscapes created with rap, beatboxing and song, Beatbox Academy bring their own perspective as young people growing up in 21^st-century Britain to the question of how modern monsters are created in today’s society.

In an innovative blend of science and the arts, The Wicked Problem places the audience in the position of jury members, making them question their own morals, debate on climate change, reflect on geographical privilege and decide on the outcome of the show.

A uniquely interactive and immersive experience that explores themes around climate change and sustainability and investigates the future of Greater Manchester.
