These sessions will be led by our very own Morven Macbeth, a highly experienced actor and theatre maker - and all-round good egg :)

“It’s incredible that the show is so light-hearted and fun, trans joy is a revolutionary act after all” -
 Neurodiverse Review 

Saddle up for a joy-fuelled, sequin-spattered gender journey of self discovery, as Canal Street Kings founder, trans trailblazer and international cabaret renegade Hunter King presents his debut musical, A Northern Tr*nny Hootenanny, ‘maid in the wild, wild, north west’. An award winning, queer parody epic where Disney meets Dolly Parton by way of Manchester’s gay village.

Inspired by Hunter’s real-life transition and the transformative power of drag, this foot-stomping, punslinging hoedown tells the tale of a milkmaid on a mission to discover their authentic self. After setting off from their small town and thinking they’ve finally found freedom, they meet a mysterious man with a moustache and a secret — and suddenly, self-discovery gets a whole lot hairier.

Age Advisory: 16+
Content Warnings: The show contains themes of gender dysphoria, transphobia, bullying, strong language and really bad puns.

The show also contains amplified sound, sudden loud sounds (gun shot sound effects), flashing lights, blackouts and optional (but encouraged) audience participation.
