Take Back Togetherness

10th July 2016

Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester

A series of creative responses that attempted to grapple with, make sense of, ask questions about and challenge the referendum result. It was a way of coming together and sharing our disillusionment and making our voices heard as an artistic community. And most of all, mustering a bit of HOPE!
