When We Started Singing
This play has been commissioned in collaboration with Rochdale Council and has been created by the M6 Theatre Company.
The play tells the story of Mr Popple who feels lonely during lockdown and finds a way to connect with the neighbours in his street. A lovely and uplifting story for 2021.
