Based
on real events, Mixed Up North is a fiercely
funny and moving new play about the difficulties
of uniting divided racial communities in the
Lancashire mill town of Burnley.
Trish leads a youth theatre group designed to
bring Asian and White teenagers together and
as the harassed director Bella struggles to
share her artistic vision with a cast who think
acting is “gay”, the compelling
stories of the young stars and their dedicated
community workers unfold.
It's
the final dress rehearsal, and tensions rise
and bonds fracture. Can Trish and Bella bring
this utopian dream to a triumphant conclusion?
