A Journey of Music, Memory, and Madchester Magic.

Step into the beat-soaked streets of a city that defined a generation.

THAT NIGHT IN MANCHESTER is a brand new theatre show touring across the UK in 2025 and 2026, this electrifying theatre experience takes the audience on an unforgettable journey through the heart and soul of the Manchester indie scene from it’s lager-stained carpets to nights lost in a Haçienda haze.

Told through the eyes of a father sharing his story with his son, this is a deeply personal, funny, and emotional tale set against the backdrop of the iconic 80s and 90s in Manchester.

Think baggy jeans, bucket hats, and basement clubs pulsating with the sounds that changed the British music scene forever.

Featuring live performances from a live band, you’ll be swept right back into the era of the Happy Mondays, The Stone Roses, Oasis, The Smiths, and many more.

Every note, every beat, and every lyric is a love letter to a city that gave birth to musical legends and lived like every night was its last. From the euphoria of The Haçienda to the grit of the Manchester council estates, THAT NIGHT IN MANCHESTER captures the raw energy and rebellion of growing up within that era.

THAT NIGHT IN MANCHESTER is a tale of aching beauty, youth and family, and of course the music that connects us all.

Whether you lived it, missed it, or were born too late—this is your chance to relive it.

This show doesn’t hold back. It hits hard, dives deep, and doesn’t ask for permission.
