FARM POSTER REVEAL!

We are thrilled to share our poster for FARM which runs 11th-13th July. Tickets are on sale now through the link in our bio!

After a sell-out run in 2021, The Construct Theatre Project revisit and revitalise their exciting contemporary adaptation of George Orwell’s classic allegorical novel ‘Animal Farm’. A potent story of power, corruption and the importance of equality, this show addresses themes more relevant than ever in today’s social climate. 
 
Old Major has died, his final words declaring that all animals will one day be free from Man. Hoping to achieve this goal, the animals, led by pigs Napoleon and Snowball rebel and banish their cruel master, Farmer Jones. It is not long before tensions begin to rise and the power vacuum created by Jones’ exile leads to corruption, deceit, and an increasingly sinister threat arising from within.

🎉 FIVE YEARS OF CONSTRUCT! 🎉

This week marks a special milestone for us at The Construct Theatre Project as we celebrate five years of making theatre! As we mark this milestone, we find ourselves reflecting on the incredibly fulfilling journey that has brought us to this point.

Back in 2019, we took our first steps as Manchester Active Youth Theatre. Since that point, we have been privileged to collaborate with numerous talented creatives. Their boundless energy, tenacity, and creativity have played a pivotal role in shaping our journey and bringing us to this point.

We owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to each and every person who has supported us and our projects over the years. Without our dedicated audiences, The Construct Theatre Project would not be what it is today.

We would also like to thank for their support and generosity in having us as an associate company over the past three years!

As we look ahead, we are filled with excitement for the future and the many possibilities it holds, including our revised treatment of our 2021 production FARM. Tickets are available through the link in our bio!

Thank you for being a part of our journey, here’s to many more years of collaborative creative vision and innovation!

Featured Productions:
Teechers (2019)
The Lockdown Collective (2021)
FARM (2021)
The Tempest (2022)
MYTHOS (2022)
The Colour Out of Space (2023)

MAYT Theatre, in association with The Edge Theatre and Arts Centre presents The Colour Out of Space. A collaboratively devised adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s cosmically thrilling short story.
 
A meteorite lands on the Gardener Family farm, its properties unlike any seen before. It holds deep within a sinister cosmic force, a colour that exists on no spectrum known to humanity. It warps the world before the Gardener’s very eyes and twists their reality to something unrecognisable. How will they fare against this colour out of space?
