Now in its 30th year, Connections 2025 draws together ten new plays from some of the UK’s most talented and popular playwrights for young people.
Greater Manchester’s youth theatres, schools and colleges will perform a number of these new plays here at HOME. The festival is a celebration of young people, theatre-making and the importance of access to the arts.
Each year the National Theatre commissions ten new plays for young people to perform, bringing together some of the most exciting writers with the theatre-makers of tomorrow.
