Open Air Theatre in Manchester and the North
Kristy Stott, Theatre EditorBalmy summer evenings and pre-show picnics; popping of corks and the clinking of glasses; high-quality performance, good company and nature’s very own top tier ventilation system, make open air theatre one of our favourite things.
We’re pleased that theatre companies and venues across the UK are currently gearing up for an exciting summer of outdoor performance.
Veterans of outdoor performance, Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre always brings the goods, alongside Lancaster’s Williamson Park, which will provide the perfect backdrop to Around The World In 80 Days this summer. And let’s not forget Liverpool Theatre Festival, which has setting like no other in St Luke’s Bombed Out Church.
Here’s our round-up of outdoor theatre happening in Manchester and the North over this summer. Check back soon – we’ll be updating this list with more shows as we find them.
