We make a wide range of theatre with and for young people, and music is at the heart of the stories we tell and the plays we make.

Check out some of our past music…

Black With a Capital B

This uplifting song and short film celebrates Liverpool’s Black community and beyond, highlighting the Black experience, resilience, and self-worth.

‘The lyrics of the song speak about the Black experience, and how despite any obstacles we face, we frequently rise above people’s expectations and do wonderful things. We are worthy and valuable just as we are – regardless of what we achieve – we are worthy when we are playing, when we are looking after our children and when we are resting – regardless of where we are from or how light or dark our skin is.’ – Paislie Reid
