What is currently on at Royal Exchange (V491)

We Were Told There Was Dancing

T01720076212
Something is happening. Underground. - Someone is running. Someone is hiding. Someone is dancing. - All of them waiting. - For the time when they can be free. Charting the shifting and stalling attitudes to gay rights, WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS DANCING marks the 50th anniversary of the Sexual Offences Act that began the decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1957 in the U.K. Following the sell-out successes of THE FACTORY and NOTHING, the Royal Exchange Theatre's award-winning Young Company return with a piece that unlocks hidden histories and celebrates the radical individuals that have changed our future.
