NGYT Double Bill Showcase

Join these young creatives as they share their truths and centre the voices of the Next Generation. A double bill of original dance and theatre by Meraki Dance Company and The NGYT Theatre Company.

Meraki Dance Company: It's just about love really...isn't it? Join our hearts, hear your own and delve into Meraki Dance Company's personal and moving accounts of love in its many guises. Truths, pain, loss, shame, joy, hope; It's just about love really... isn't it?

NGYT Theatre Company: Be still the tide “...and you aren't alone. I want you- I need you to know my door's always open”

A journey of self-discovery and acceptance as we live through the overwhelming waves of anxiety and fear. Dance studios, comfy corners, hilltop hideaways and Stadium sanctuary. Good days and bad days, safe spaces to speak or drown in unentered silence.

'Be Still The Tide' ebbs and flows on the shores of our lived experiences, sharing our unique voices through music, movement, storytelling and verse – where hope hears reality and survival stands taller than the never-ending waves.

Content Warnings: References loss and depictions of grief, themes of mental health, depicts anxiety and references suicide (not depicted).

The Studio Theatre auditorium will remain open after 'Be Still The Tide' for mindful reflection. The Beacon Lounge and Café/Bar will be open after the shows for mindful journalling using paper and pens provided.

Running Time: 2 hours including a 30 minute interval
