Homotopia celebrates 21st century LGBT life with an array of the queer, the extravagant, the bold, the unexpected and the daring. Meanwhile our collaboration with the Liverpool Irish Festival brings the leading interpreters of Samuel Beckett, the acclaimed Gare St. Lazare Players, to our stage. For families don’t miss a colourful story of magic, genies and the high seas as unity’s family show The Voyages of Sinbad The Sailor swoops in this Christmas on its flying carpet!
