Offering up a double bill of exciting new performances each night – two dynamic new shows for the price of one.

The Civic’s New Work Weekend supports these artists and companies, giving them a platform and our ‘stamp of approval’ as they pursue their creative journeys.

BEAM - By Lucy Haighton

This is Granny's story – 10 pairs of knickers, a leap, a waft of lavender, a blue suit, and true love. True love? Does that even exist anymore? Times are hard, put on your slipper socks and join Granny – she has something sweet to share. Through movement, music and gentle interaction, Granny will take you on a journey through past love from a world before. Based on a true story, Beam is about hope, a celebration of the bravery and risks taken by an older generation, and leaves the audience questioning their own capacity to take such risks in the world today.

Standard: Elite - By Hidden Track Theatre

There are two types of ticket.

Everyone gets a Standard ticket. You must earn an Elite ticket.

Together, we're going to tell a story. The story of a girl from Lowground spun from spider web, and a boy from Highground carved from clouds.

Standards work to build the story, Elites control which path the story takes. That's fair, right?

Standard:Elite is a playful, interactive theatre experience that brings class to the table in a way that's accessible, non-confrontational, and above all fun.

Make your own choices. Tell your own story. Create your own class war.

Winner of the Greater Manchester Fringe Award for 'Best New Writing'.
