The multi-award-winning Liverpool Theatre Festival is back for a fourth year running in 2023 with brand new dates – the main festival will take place during the Summer holidays. While the new works event Little LTF runs in Autumn. Both events will once again take place at the iconic St Luke’s Bombed-Out Church.
Liverpool Theatre Festival will run at the start of the school Summer holidays from Thursday 20 July to Sunday 30 July 2023. The new dates also mean that a fantastic programme for all the family will be included.
Fringe event Little LTF – Liverpool Theatre Festival Of New Works will take place in the Autumn, running from Tuesday 3 – Sunday 8 October 2023. Performances will be staged within the more intimate marquee setting at St Luke’s Bombed Out Church. Further details about submitting work will be announced soon.
Last year, the festival boasted its biggest and most diverse programme to date featuring variety and cabaret, comedy, opera, drama, musicals, family shows, and drag acts. Now organisers are continuing to build on the extensive choice of shows.
The festival includes the announcement of two new commissions that premiered at Liverpool Theatre Festival in July. Sober Companion is a brand new play written by and starring Joe McGann and Jake Norton, and new children’s show Fred The Musical, based on the book about a fire-sneezing dragon by Fay Evans.
