Turn On Fest 2021

Hope Mill Theatre is delighted to present the second annual Turn On Fest in 2021, an annual LGBTQIA+ festival in partnership with Superbia, Manchester Pride’s year round programme of arts and culture.

The festival will spread over two weeks with an incredible array of online shows from 17 to 28 March 2021.

Headlining the festival will be an evening in conversation with Hope Mill Theatre patron and creator of Channel 4’s new drama, It’s A Sin, Russell T Davies hosted by Julie Hesmondhalgh.

Superbia, Hope Mill Theatre’s partnering organisation, will host two key events within the festival.

Hope Mill Theatre has also offered development grants worth £1,000 for four Manchester based queer theatre makers who will share new work in the festival.

Turn On Fest is an opportunity for artists to grow and elevate LGBTQIA+ experiences, and is committed to creating a diverse, inclusive and accessible environment.

They are also offering a FESTIVAL PASS so you can enjoy as many events as you like, for 20% off. You can book this via their partners Stream Theatre.
