Theatre Factory Community

Project

Theatre Factory Community

Our community work in 2023-24 is all part of the development of our 2026 festival, IF!

IF! will tell stories of Barrow people in words, music, animation and drama and will involve people from right across our communities of all ages, races, genders and sexualities.
IF!
Festival of Inclusion

New Partnerships

In 2023-24 we are delighted to be working with Horizon Studios on a brand new piece of 'rap drama' giving voice through music, spoken word and drama to the lives and experience of young men from Barrow. If you want more information please email rachel@theatrefactory.org

Tea Trolley

Fancy a brew, a fairy cake and a natter? Look out for our giant outdoor tea trolley which will be wandering around Hindpool Ward this September


Live and Loud

Live and Loud is a series of performances in the community made by local people working with our team of theatre makers. Live and Loud shows tell local, real life stories that are seldom heard.

The first of the series is Queer 4 U, the 4th  in our series of Queer cabarets in partnership with Dropzone Youth and Barrow Library, featuring 3 pieces of specially created work celebrating the lives of Queer Barrovians

Next up is The Unseen Child created with Furness Young Carers, which will be performed on Saturday 14 October at Nelson Street Community Centre, Barrow in Furness
