In support of our monthly cabaret night LOUD, which showcases and celebrates emerging and local LGBTQ+ talent, we’re delighted to announce LOUDER.

We’re moving upstairs into our larger Derby Hall and will be providing an even bigger stage for local LGBTQ+ talent! Joining them on stage for LOUDER are two nationally recognised names with a passion for supporting LGBTQ+ artists. Proceeds from LOUDER will help support our monthly LOUD events bringing Bury audiences the LGBTQ+ arts and culture they deserve.

You can expect plenty more side-splitting comedians, soaring vocalists, queens of cabaret and divine drag acts and regular LOUD Cabaret host Mancunian writer, actor and activist Nathaniel J Hall (First Time, It’s A Sin).
