2016 marks the twentieth anniversary of the bombing of Manchester by the provisional IRA. The bomb, the largest ever detonated in mainland Britain, devastated the city centre, and injured 212 people. On Corporation Street responds to this seismic event, a pivotal moment that transformed the shape of the city, and ANU will occupy HOME with a series of fearless and personal encounters. Past, present and future collide, propelling us through landscapes inspired by the memories and myths of Saturday 15 June 1996. Prepare to uncover secrets, surrender your senses and share fragments of the event and its aftermath. World Premier. On Corporation Street is the second in a triptych of productions by ANU marking the centenary of Ireland's Easter Rising.
