About this Event

An Evening with Testament to Truth20th October | 19:30 | Liverpool Cathedral

Step into the timeless grandeur of Liverpool Cathedral for an unforgettable night of truth, rhythm, and revelation.

Renowned West Yorkshire poet, rapper, and world-record breaking beatboxer, Testament, takes to the stage for a performance that speaks powerfully to our times. Through original theatre and reflection, this event explores the themes of inclusion, community, identity and the role of faith and spirituality in shaping who we are—both as individuals and as a society.

In honour of Black History Month, this evening is more than a performance—it’s a call to listen, to reflect, and to awaken. Testament to Truth invites you to walk with him through stories that challenge, uplift, and inspire.

Come ready to be moved.
