Now For The North

First in The Lyric, Belfast May 2019

Then in The MAC, Belfast Sept 2019

Funds raised through CrowdFunder and Ticket Sales. Supported by Alliance For Choice - 20% of ticket sales will go to support their cause. 

28 women leave NI each week, crossing the waters seeking treatment. Behind every statistic is a real woman.

Now For The North is a site-specific, immersive piece of “choice” theatre from Three’s Theatre Company.  You'll journey around the MAC exploring reproductive rights in Northern Ireland - you'd normally get a choice of the journey to take, but as NI women don't have that option, Three's will choose for you.

 "We are here to speak out and tell the stories. Behind every statistic there is a woman*... A real woman with a life, passions, commitments, a family and friends. A woman who is not being supported by their government, a woman who must travel to receive the medical help they need. 

We are not ashamed, we will stand for our sisters, our mothers, our grandmothers, our cousins, our friends. Northern Ireland, We Want Change"

- Anna Leckey, Artistic Director, Three's Theatre Company

Reviews

“Full of empathy, sensitivity and surprisingly enough, humour, Three’s Theatre Company highlights just how far Northern Ireland has to go before catching up.”

- Pastie Bap

“It's an astonishing performance, one of many suffusing and supplementing an atmosphere as heartwarming as it is heartbreaking.”

  • - Simon Fallaha

“Now for the North has poise and tact, believing in the power of listening the thoughts and feelings of relatable people who are making difficult choices in less than ideal circumstances to understand rather than judge them, without any need to resort to preaching blunt messages or relying on techniques that simply shock-for-effect.”
