The social for Wednesday the 9th is a ‘Dress as Your Course’, the pres will be at Walkabout in Print Works and then go to 42’s 🕺
Pres will start at 8:30pm at Walkabout Printworks - 27 Withy Grove, Manchester M4 2BS.
There will be some current AF members waiting at Peel Park Campus Accommodation at 8:00pm. If anyone unsure of how to get to the location they are more than welcome to meet us there, we will leave Peel at 8:10pm.
We will aim to leave pres at 10:40pm to get to 42’s by 11pm - 2 Bootle St, Manchester M2 5GU 📍
Ticket link for 42’s - https://www.42sclub.com/event/riot-freshers-special-6/ - tickets are between £1 - £3
Tickets might sell fast because it’s Freshers Week so get booking!!!
Another thing to note is that if you want to get into 42’s, you will need to be in the club before 11:30pm (this is a rule on the ticket link).
For those who are new to Salford/Manchester, here are a few ways to get to our chosen locations - you can get to Walkabout on a few buses including the 50, 67 and 100 and a 3 - 10 minute walk, or there is the train to Manchester Victoria and it’s a 2 minute walk!
Hope to see both new and old faces there! Can’t wait!

Introducing our Production Teams for our ‘Show in a Week’ performances! 🎬

Our production teams, alongside their casts, have the exciting challenge of putting together an entire show in just ONE WEEK! From casting and learning lines to rehearsing songs and dances, they’ll have just seven days to bring their productions to life before taking to the stage at the end of the week.

Meet the production teams behind this year’s selected plays and musicals:
🎭 An Inspector Calls — Ruby Heywood & Amy McCready
🧟 The Rocky Horror Show — Liam Bryran & Blue Moor
💚 Heathers — Isobel Dixon & Caitlin Elliott
🥖 Oliver! — Eleanor Gaughan & Teddy Lowe

We can’t wait to see what each team creates — and we hope to see you either at auditions or cheering us on from the audience! 👀🎟️

Let the countdown begin… ⏰
