This exhibition of photographs by Martin O’Neill show legendary Manchester band Joy Division playing live at Bowdon Vale Youth Club in March 1979, over a year before their infamous show at The Met. They capture the intimacy of the gig, which took place on a tiny stage in front of around 150 teenagers.
Come along to this free launch event for an opportunity to see the exhibition and meet Martin O’Neill himself.
Martin’s exhibition will be on display in the Main Theatre Foyer until the end of March.
