Feelgood is looking to the Future!
Following the phenomenal success of our 30th Anniversary tour of Slave – A Question of Freedom, we are stepping boldly into our next chapter with a brand-new commission now in development. As with all ambitious creations, it will take a little time to bring to life — but trust us, it will be worth the wait. This exciting new venture will explore the powerful intersection of opera, dance and chamber ensemble, promising a rich, visceral theatrical experience.
This November, we are honoured to once again host the Peace Remembrance Event in Heaton Park, and we are already in conversation about uncovering and sharing more stories from our beloved park.
Exciting times lie ahead!
In the meantime, enjoy a selection of images and reviews from our recent work below.
What a wonderful culmination of
30 amazing years...
This multi-award winning play stands alongside the greats of the 21st century.
Set in the beautiful Nuba Mountains of Sudan, Mende (12) is taken from her family by raiders and enslaved for seven years, then trafficked to London in 2000 by a diplomat where she finally manages to escape. The show is an inspiring celebration of the ancient Nuba culture and tells one girl's story of hope and courage in the face of adversity. It is told by 9 international actors as a feast of storytelling, music and dance. It bursts the myths of modern slavery and audiences described it as 'an amazing night at the theatre' that inspired them to make a difference. Mende is free now - a remarkable young woman who works as a nurse.
