About this Event

Join us for an evening of celebration to mark the official opening of our new exhibition! This exhibition explores the history of Merseyside Unity Theatre from 1937 - 1987, which has been made possible through the Unity Theatre Heritage Lottery funded project 'A Radical Re-imagining'. Discover original documents, photographs and hidden stories about a group of talented, determined performers that put politics at the heart of performance.

The launch event will include speeches, refreshments, pop up performances, and a chance to explore the archive material in more depth.
