Protest & Pride – Art as Resistance

Opening night: Friday 15 August from 6:30pm – all welcome!⁠
⁠
We’re launching The People’s Gallery with our first ever exhibition and you’re all invited!⁠
⁠
Protest & Pride is a celebration of LGBTQIA+ creativity, protest and radical joy. This powerful show brings together artists using their work to speak up, resist, and connect, from political movements to personal acts of defiance.⁠
⁠
It’s about anger and celebration, resilience and visibility because art can be protest, and joy can be resistance too.⁠

Nyako | Roots of Lives

Roots of Lives is inspired by the astral charts of the two performers, among them opposite and compatible. A game of mutual balance built around the 4 elements of nature that questions the relationship between the conscious and the unconscious, between the self and the other.

“When we talk about the roots of lives, we talk about all lives”.

NYAKO | Workshop | Working with our personality as dancers NYAKO

Reception: The Wedding Present Musical

A story of love gone wrong, love gone right and then love gone wrong again…

It’s the summer of 1985 and a group of Leeds friends are celebrating the end of their university days. But life doesn’t always work out as planned, as events unfold over a graduation ceremony, a funeral, a wedding and, of course, the reception…

You should always keep in touch with your friends… or should you?

Featuring songs from semi-legendary indie band The Wedding Present, this brand new musical will take you back to the sticky dance floors and crimped hair of 1980s Leeds.
