Owt on Stage
Thursday 7th November, Band on the Wall
Traditionally the Tib Street district, now know as the Northern Quarter, was an area inhabited by those on the edge of society. It has a long history and, before gentrification, a strong sense of community to those who frequented its pet shops by day and services by night.
We want to celebrate that diversity again by holding a monthly open stage event for anyone who prizes their individuality and access to a safe, daytime space.
You can do anything on stage – poetry, tell the story of an old photograph, sing, dance, stand up comedy, give a speech… We urge you to exercise your voice in whatever medium / style you want. This is your space. Welcome.
This event is organised by Key Changes and Creative Support and welcomes community partnership.

Aimee’s Hair Salon
Aimee works every Monday from 10am-2pm, offering affordable haircuts and styles to members. “I enjoy watching people build in confidence after having their hair done. At the moment I offer haircuts, blow-dries and curling, but unfortunately at the minute I am not qualified in barbering.
