About this Event
An Evening with Testament to Truth 20th 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.
