Children and young people from across Liverpool will come together to perform in the city's fifth annual NOW Festival. Organised and directed by Merseyside Youth Association's (MYA) mental health promotion team, in partnership with Liverpool Child Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), Liverpool Cultural Education Partnership and the Arts Council, the festival will take place over four nights at the Epstein Theatre. Hundreds of children and young people from schools, clubs and youth groups across Liverpool will deliver a range of dramatic performances, exploring the theme of 'Mental health and belonging'. This year's festival will showcase a mixture of drama, dance, musical theatre and film, all exploring the life-long effects of childhood; questioning how it affects our mental health.
