For one night only, step into the heart of Greater Manchester's underground scene as four dynamic artists bring their raw energy for a night of dance that will leave you wanting more. Fusing street dance styles, expect to see hip-hop, krump and popping with powerful themes and bold storytelling. For the very first time, Platform+ has commissioned four Manchester-based hip-hop artists to develop and present new and bold work for the Lowry stage. Our talented artists have been mentored by Boy Blue's Kenrick Sandy. Platform+ is supported by Lowry and Shockout Arts. We are delighted to present the following line-up of artists: MERCHERNISM by Bella Chieza Rituals of release by Mia Ceraldi Praise Be by Callum Armstrong Soft Armour by KT Smith
