About this event
“You open the door into this club. And the noise and the smell and the heat hit you. It smothers you. Jumps all over you. Gets right in.” It’s New Year’s Eve, 1997. Manchester. The DJ’s in full flow, and as your favourite indie songs blast out into the smoke-filled air of the club, the whole place feels electric. Three girls are on the dancefloor. Polly and Angie are up for a big night. Jean is lost and alone. Change is in the air - New Labour, New Year, a new millennium. After decades of grey, this should be their time. But as darkness falls and midnight arrives, will they find their light? Set to a live soundtrack of 90’s classics, How Soon is Now? is an indie musical about mates, music and magic – finding your place and finding yourself. There’s a club. Would you like to go?

If this is your kind of night, these are other ways in: a collection this venue belongs to, traditions it works in, and similar theatre still playing in Manchester this week.
This venue’s world
This venue sits in the collection, not this one title.
Traditions this room works in
Tags on the venue. Other Manchester rooms carry the same lineage. Not a claim that this film invented the tradition.
Also playing this week
Same kind of night (theatre) in Manchester. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
