A raw, naturalistic portrayal of life in a bleak North Manchester town centre, the play explores cycles of poverty, racism, and young adulthood. It follows a group of youths and families as their lives intersect around gossip, forbidden relationships, and a tragic escalation of tensions leading to violence. The story delves into lost potential, generational frustration, and the suffocating nature of small-town life. Sunrise for the Blind pulls no punches, a familiar theme of writer, Lee Lomas, it promises to be an eye opening experience with plenty of light to balance out the shade. Trigger Warning: Please be advised that this performance contains strong language and explicit racial slurs. This production explores themes that some viewers may find distressing. Recommended for ages 16+.
